Renault’s latest unveiling, the Symbioz, marks a significant addition to its model range. Positioned between the Captur and Austral SUVs, this new offering integrates state-of-the-art automotive technology, versatile interiors, and modern design elements. Renault emphasizes that the name reflects themes of unity, family, and the symbiotic relationship between a vehicle and its occupants.
Measuring 4,413mm in length, 1,797mm in width, and 1,575mm in height, the Symbioz is constructed on the CMF-B platform. Its contemporary aesthetics are underscored by arrow-shaped DRLs, slim LED headlights, and a sleek blanked-off grille. At the rear, triangular-shaped LED lights and a minimalist design add to its appeal, complemented by stylish 19-inch alloy wheels.

Beneath its exterior, the Symbioz houses the brand’s E-Tech Full Hybrid 145 system as the sole powertrain option. This configuration, comprising a 1.6L four-cylinder petrol engine, two electric motors, and a 1.2kWh battery, delivers a combined output of 145hp. Starting consistently in all-electric mode enables silent city driving and enhances fuel efficiency.
Inside, the Symbioz offers a spacious and comfortable cabin, equipped with up to 24 contemporary driving aids to ensure passenger safety and convenience. The dashboard features a portrait-oriented 10.4-inch touchscreen hosting Renault’s Google-based OpenR Link infotainment system. With the rear seats adjustable by 160mm, the SUV provides up to 221mm of knee room and expands its boot capacity from 492 liters to a generous 624 liters, which further extends to 1,582 liters with the 60:40 split seats folded flat. The top-tier model boasts a Solarbay sunroof with automatically tinting electrochromic glass.
