Renault has updated the pricing and specification for its Arkana SUV, which includes both full hybrid and mild hybrid engines.

The revised range consists of Evolution, Techno, RS Line and E-Tech Engineered versions. The changes mirror those applied to the brand's Captur and Clio models.

Pricing starts at £26,695 (OTR) for the Evolution grade, increasing to £32,695 for the range-topping E-Tech Engineered.

The Arkana's powertrain line-up remains unchanged. There's a 1.3-litre mild hybrid petrol unit, with 140PS and CO2 emissions of 132g/km, and a 1.6-litre hybrid with 145PS and CO2 emissions of 108-109g/km.

Both engines are paired with automatic transmissions. The mild hybrid promises 48.7mpg, while the hybrid can manage 58.9mpg.

The new Evolution trim replaces the previous Iconic. It is equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, full LED headlights, a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system, rear parking sensors, reversing camera and tinted rear windows and tailgate.

Renault’s Active Emergency Braking System is also standard, along with traffic sign recognition, lane departure warning with lane keep assist, hill start assist, and cruise control with speed limiter.

The mid-range Techno replaces S Edition and adds 18-inch alloys wheels, wireless smartphone charger, a 10-inch digital instrument cluster, a 9.3-inch touchscreen with navigation, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, blind spot monitor and an auto-hold function.

Sporty RS Line is carried over from before, featuring a unique front bumper with F1 blade and honeycomb grille, chromed exhaust tailpipes, leather and suede upholstery with red stitching, a heated perforated leather steering wheel, heated electrically-adjustable front seats, frameless rear-view mirror, and hands-free parking.

A new range-topping trim level, E-Tech Engineered, completes the line-up. Like the RS Line it comes with a heated steering wheel and electrically-adjustable and heated front seats. Gold detailing is applied inside and out to set the model apart. It also features adaptive cruise control.

With Renault Easy Connect, the Arkana is able to access a number of services through the MY Renault app and the Easy Link multimedia system.

It features continuous 4G connectivity and additional services offered by partners such as Google (address finder) and TomTom (real-time traffic information).

From remote vehicle control to real-time traffic information, including door-to-door navigation with the destination information sent to the car, vehicle location and remote door control, all systems aim to offer a unique connected experience, both inside the vehicle and outside, via the driver’s smartphone, says Renault.

The Renault Easy Link multimedia system and onboard mapping also provide automatic and regular updates thanks to ‘Over the Air’ technology.

Despite the coupé-like body shape, the Arkana’s boot has a load capacity of 513 litres and features a raised floor and seats which can be folded completely flat.

Meanwhile the front of the cabin offers a large amount of storage space, including a storage net on the passenger side with door pockets each large enough to hold 1.5-litre bottles.
