Renault Rafale, whose name we learned for the first time today, will be another model that will hit the roads with its Coupe SUV lines after Arkana.
With moves such as Austral, Clio and Espace, Renault has clarified the renewal process with concrete steps, and the wind of change in its product range continues. The new member of the SUV product range, which has been caught on cameras during the test process in camouflage for a while, has started to wink at us after the curtain as of today. The new model, which has been announced to hit the road with the name Renault Rafale in mass production form, is a response to current trends with its Coupe SUV dynamics. Rafale, which will be another model to which the French manufacturer applies these qualities after Arkana, will only be available with a hybrid engine option.

Name choice for Renault Rafale draws attention
The name chosen by Renault for the new Coupe SUV model will spiritually complement the model’s aerodynamic lines. This decision, which reflects the name of the aircraft, which was in the range of that period of the aviation company Caudron, which was owned by the French manufacturer in the mid-1930s, to the roads today, will be supported by sporty lines. Renault Rafale, which will be developed on the CMF-CD infrastructure, shares the same infrastructure with Nissan X-Trail, apart from Austral and Espace, in parallel. In parallel with the infrastructure under the hood, we expect to see hybrid options that we see in other members of the family, and a rechargeable hybrid option is also expected to be offered for the model. At the first stage, it will not be surprising that a mild-hybrid machine with 200 horsepower and 205 Nm torque is launched, based on the 1.2-liter engine. We will receive updates on the model in the coming days.
