Launched in 2022, Renault Austral is a unique SUV. Compact on the outside, spacious and
modular on the inside, it is the most versatile vehicle available in the C segment. Positioned
alongside Renault Rafale, it supports the hybrid arm of the Renault range in the C- and D-
segment offensive announced in the Renaulution Strategic Plan.
New Renault Austral has received a contemporary makeover, with a fully transformed front
end. The cues of Renault's new design language are visible on most of the body features,
giving it an overall look that is consistent with the Rafale.
The interior ambience echoes the elegance of the exterior styling, with new front seats and
upholstery. It also gains technology rivalling higher market segments, with driver recognition
and new apps available via the OpenR Link system with Google built-in.
Ultra-versatile, New Renault Austral delivers an exceptional driving experience on both long
journeys and the daily commute. With its full hybrid E-Tech 200 hp powertrain and clutchless
multi-mode automatic gearbox, it offers one of the best power / fuel efficiency / driving
comfort ratios on the market.
More assertive and with stronger contemporary edge, New Renault Austral
adopts the brand's new design language. Featuring completely redesigned
front and rear ends and a new light signature, its overall look is now more
consistent with Rafale.
Illustrating the continuing C-segment offensive, the onboard experience is
upgraded in terms of both comfort and useful technologies. New features
include an automatic driver recognition system for a personalised welcome.
The interior gains new, more ergonomic front seats, new upholstery and
improved soundproofing. The folding, reclining rear bench seat slides over 16
cm, allowing the driver to adapt load capacity as required (from 527 litres to
1,736 litres with the full hybrid E-Tech 200 hp powertrain).
New Renault Austral pairs the full hybrid E-Tech 200 hp powertrain with a
clutchless multi-mode automatic gearbox for a performance/efficiency ratio on
a par with the best: fuel consumption of 4.7 litres/100 km and 106g of CO 2 /km*.
Built on the CMF-CD platform, New Renault Austral ships with 4Control
Advanced 4-wheel steering and 32 new-generation driving aids.
