The Master's bigger brother will be built at Vauxhall's IBC vehicle plant at Luton, while the Master will be rebadged as a Vauxhall and sold in the UK alongside the Renault offering early next year. While the Master is a traditional box-on-wheels design, the Kangoo is a pretty bold styling statement which could well appeal to trendy small businesses looking for a practical runabout with a bit of flair.
Renault has set great store by providing the drivers of these vehicles with a comprehensive choice of optional extras - including air conditioning and dual airbags - as driver is now perceived as having a greater say in the buying decision than previously. Both newcomers are long overdue given the 17-year-old technology upon which their predecessors were based, but in a reinvigorated LCV market destined to go ballistic as all the major manufacturers pile back into it with a vengeance, the replacements will have to be good to hack it into the next century.
