最近谍照记者拍到了雷诺全新中级SUV，据报道，该车将被命名为“Maxthon“（最终名称还未确定），它将替代07年上市，销量不佳的科雷傲。该车绝大部分部件将与日产奇骏共享。雷诺设计总监Laurens van den Acker在日内瓦车展表示：”该车基本上就是奇骏的雷诺版本。“这款车的车身进行了重度伪装，而它的很多设计元素都取自塔利斯曼轿车，车身尺寸比科雷傲更大。虽然这次记者并未拍到车辆内装照片，但预计车厢内装将与雷诺D级轿车/旅行车差不多。该车将配备LED前大灯，雷诺最新的R-Link 2信息娱乐系统并集成纵向排列触控显示屏以及数字仪表群。虽然先前有报道称，该车可选装第三排座椅，但Laurens van den Acker表示，该车将坚持五座布局。预计雷诺将在下月开幕的北京车展发布这款车。雷诺之所以选择在北京车展发布这款车主要是由于中国是该车最主要市场，而且这款车也将在中国组装。除了中国，该车还将于明年初进入澳大利亚、亚洲和欧洲市场。

 

Renault Maxthon spied getting ready to replace Koleos

Spy photos show Renault is putting the finishing touches on its brand new midsize SUV which will reportedly be called “Maxthon.”

 

The Koleos has been on sale since 2007, so it’s obviously in dire need of a replacement especially since the model’s poor sales have prompted Renault from withdrawing it from several markets. Seen here is its direct replacement, the Maxthon, a midsize SUV which will share most of its underpinnings with the Nissan X-Trail. As a matter of fact, Renault's design chief Laurens van den Acker said in Geneva: "essentially we have made a Renault version of the X-Trail."

 

All that camouflage on the body can’t hide the fact it will borrow many styling cues from the Talisman midsize sedan and will be way bigger than the Koleos. Although we can’t see the interior in these pics, we expect the cabin to have a lot in common with Renault’s D-segment sedan/wagon.

 

Some of the goodies it will receive include those fancy LED headlights, Renault’s latest R-Link 2 infotainment system with a large portrait-style touchscreen, and a digital instrument cluster. While previous rumors indicated it would get an optional third row of seats, Laurens van den Acker said it will be sold strictly with five seats.

 

Expect to see the Renault Maxthon (name not confirmed) break cover next month at the Beijing Motor Show. The reason why the company with the diamond logo has decided to unveil the new SUV in China (rather than in Geneva) is because that will be its main market and the model will be assembled locally.

 

Besides China, Renault's latest high-riding model will also be sold in Australia, Asia, and Europe, with the former getting the SUV early 2017.
