Unlike the original Arkana (based on a Dacia Duster) which has been sold for more than a year in Russia, the "French" Arkana takes over the CMF-B modular platform from the Renault-Nissan Alliance. Renault Arkan SUV is 4.56 m long, 1.80 m wide, 1.57 m high and 2.72 m wheelbase.
When it is launched next year, this Arkana coupe SUV will skip diesel. It will be powered by a 1.3L TCe gasoline of 140hp or 160hp with 12 V electric system within the mild-hybrid architecture system. It will also adopt the 1.6L E-Tech Hybrid 140 hp engine from the new Clio. The system is based on a 9.8 kWh battery, which promises an electric range of 65 km.
