Launched in 2022, the Renault Austral is a standout SUV, offering a compact exterior with a spacious and versatile interior. As one of the most adaptable vehicles in the C-segment, it sits alongside the Renault Rafale, reinforcing the hybrid arm of Renault’s range as part of the brand’s ambitious C- and D-segment strategy outlined in the Renaulution Strategic Plan.
The New Renault Austral has undergone a contemporary transformation, featuring a fully reimagined front end. Significant updates enhance its exterior design, with a new bonnet, bumper, and grille that add a bolder, more dynamic presence—echoing the refined aesthetics of the Rafale. Incorporating Renault’s latest design language, the front bumper is adorned with intricate embossed 3D diamond detailing around the central logo. This attention to precision is mirrored in the high-tech design of the new front and rear lighting systems. The refined styling extends to the tailgate, where the upper and central sections now feature more elegant, sculpted lines.
The New Renault Austral continues to be offered in classic shades including Gloss Schist Grey, Starry Black, Pearl White, and Flame Red. Additionally, two new striking body colours—Ultramarine Blue and Satin Pearl White—join the palette. Exclusive to the Esprit Alpine trim, Satin Schist Grey and Satin Pearl White further elevate its sophisticated appeal. A two-tone Starry Black roof, highly favoured by customers, is now available from the Techno trim level upwards. Inside, the New Renault Austral echoes the elegance of its exterior with refreshed front seats and premium upholstery. The cabin also benefits from cutting-edge technology, rivalling higher market segments, with driver recognition and new apps accessible through the OpenR Link system featuring Google built-in.
Designed for ultimate versatility, the New Renault Austral delivers an exceptional driving experience, whether on long journeys or the daily commute. Its full hybrid E-Tech 200 hp powertrain, paired with a clutchless multi-mode automatic gearbox, offers an outstanding balance of power, fuel efficiency, and driving comfort. Features such as 4Control Advanced, Multi-Sense, and 32 next-generation driver assistance systems (ADAS) ensure superior ride comfort and onboard safety. The New Renault Austral will be available in three trim levels: Evolution, Techno, and Esprit Alpine. Continuing its production at the Palencia plant in Spain, the new model will be available in multiple European markets before the summer.
