Where does Renault sit compared with other motor manufacturers?
Renaults are renowned for excellent design features, high safety ratings and reliability. Often Renault models are first in their respective classes to achieve 5-star safety ratings. The Captur and Clio are some of the safest models out there! The Sandero and Duster rate highly on reliability and in terms of price and accessibility the entry-level Kwid is a great option for those on a budget.
What’s the current range of Renault cars, crossovers and people movers?
The Renault Clio V, Megane RS 300 Trophy and Kiwd are all new Renault hatchbacks in South Africa, while the Captur, Duster, Koleos, and Kiger (replaced the Sandero) are the crossover and SUV options and the Triber is an MPV/ people mover in the new Renault cars range.
What’s the current range of Renault sports utility vehicles?
All of the best (not to mention the most desirable) Renault SUV superstars are available on our showroom floors! This includes the Renault Duster, Renault Captur, Renault Kiger, and Renault Koleos

How do I find out what my Renault’s service intervals are?
If you want to find out what your Renault’s service intervals are you can check your vehicle’s service book or call our service and they will be happy to help you. Alternatively, take a look at service intervals under specifications on the brochure for your particular Renault.

How do I know what my warranty includes?
If you purchase a new Renault you should get a five-year warranty with the vehicle, which covers the cost of repair or replacement of any defective parts, material, or even assembly and manufacturing defects. Your Renault Warranty also covers any consequential damage resulting from the original defect. Note that identification must be done by a certified Renault service centre like Group1 Renault, in consultation with Renault South Africa. For more information, you can check your own personal 5-year Renault Warranty Policy.
