## **Summary**

Renault is back in the compact commercial van segment with the petrol-powered 2025 Kangoo, offering agile handling and a thoughtfully laid-out interior. 

Dual sliding side doors and barn-style rear access come standard, giving this little workhorse plenty of day-to-day usefulness. 

While the sprightly turbo-petrol engine pairs well with the city-suited chassis, the dual-clutch auto can hesitate around tight spots, and some fundamental safety features require an extra outlay. 

If your budget allows for a few clever add-ons, the new Kangoo may be the right blend of maneuverability and load-friendly design.

## **Pros & Cons**

### **Pros**

- Lively steering that makes urban driving a breeze

- Twin sliding doors and barn-door tailgate for simple loading

### **Cons**

- Key driver assistance items bundled into pricey options
- Optioned-up models quickly become expensive
- Dual-clutch automatic occasionally stumbles in stop-start traffic

## **Interior & Features**

Renault injects more utility into the Kangoo’s cabin by offering deep overhead storage, a lidded dash cubby, a phone-sized tray, and multiple USB charging points. 

The standard bulkhead keeps cabin noise down while dual sliding doors help with quick loading. While bare metal lines the cargo space, you can opt for protective mats or an interior liner. 

The central infotainment display features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, though volume resets and a handful of design quirks may require patience.

## **Engine & Fuel Economy**

A 1.3-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder pairs with a seven-speed dual-clutch auto in SWB and LWB forms, or a six-speed manual in the base SWB. 

Official consumption for the auto SWB is rated at 6.2L/100km, though real-world mixed driving can average closer to 8.0L. The DCT can be hesitant off the line and in stop-start conditions, yet it shifts smoothly once the Kangoo gets rolling.
