A quirky car, filled with space and light

Based closely on the Kangoo Compact Concept show car unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, Renault Kangoo be bop is the latest addition to the Kangoo line-up. The compact size of this quirky vehicle (length: 3.87 metres), plus its original two-tone colour scheme and exclusive interior appointments ensure that it stands out in a crowd, while its extensive glazed area and four roomy seats exude a sensation of space and light. Ideal for escaping the crowd, Kangoo be bop offers open-top motoring at the rear thanks to a glazed sliding roof and a rear tailgate window that slides down out of sight. There are also two overhead tilting glass panels at the front, plus a fixed central glass panel. In its striking Etincelle Orange livery, Renault Kangoo be bop stands out as a funloving car, while the Pearlescent Black or Pavot Red version exudes the class of a chic city car. It consequently has a range of personalities, and is ideal for customers who want to move away from the norm, with a car that expresses their joie de vivre.

A unique, richly equipped version

Available in a single version, Kangoo be bop is powered by the Kangoo range's upper-end powerplants : the dCi 105 diesel which drives through a six-speed gearbox and the 1.6 16V 105hp petrol unit. It naturally delivers all the features that contribute to its unique personality as standard, including its two-tone metallic paint finish, glazed roof, 16-inch alloy wheels and modular seat layout. But it delivers even more… In addition to ESC and a long list of passive safety equipment, Renault Kangoo be bop comes with a range of standard driving aids, such as automatic headlamp and windscreen wiper activation and foglamps.

In terms of comfort, Renault Kangoo be bop comes as standard with climate control, a radio-CD with MP3 playback and fingertip remote control, a trip computer and electrically-folding, defrosting exterior mirrors.

For the first time in the New Kangoo range, Kangoo be bop can be ordered with optional Carminat Bluetooth® CD satellite navigation. In addition to its attractive price, this system offers all the fundamental multimedia features, namely GPS navigation with traffic information, a 16/9 seven-inch colour display and Bluetooth connectivity. Meanwhile, occupants can listen to their own play lists thanks to the multi-function Plug & Music system which is located on the dashboard and has USB, MP3 player, and iPod connection ports controlled via the steering wheel-mounted fingertip remote control.
