Renault celebrate residual jump
Written By Faye Sunderland Published On: May 20 2009
Two of Renault’s latest range additions, New Kangoo and New Grand Scénic, have cause to celebrate following the latest CAP Monitor residual value update for May 2009, with significantly improved forecasts for both compared to their predecessors.
New Grand Scénic – up to 8.3 per cent RV increase
Launched on 15th May, the new seven-seat version of the pioneering compact MPV is already receiving favourable media reviews, and now the residual value experts seem suitably impressed too.With quality strides made in terms of fit and finish, not to mention its sleeker lines, over 3 years/60,000 miles, the likely best-seller, New Grand Scénic Dynamique 1.6 VVT 111, has seen a remarkable 8.3 per cent improvement, up to 27.2 per cent, equivalent to a £1,325 increase. In the process, it has moved to third in the compact MPV sector, overtaking among others, the Volkswagen Touran 1.4 TSI SE at 25.7 per cent and Vauxhall Zafira 1.8i Design at 21 per cent. The likely second best-selling model, Dynamique 1.5 dCi 106 has also made significant ground, rising 6.9 per cent to 30 per cent and also moving ahead of Citroën Grand C4 Picasso 1.6 HDi VTR+ at 26.8 per cent.
New Kangoo – RVs up 9.4 per cent
New Kangoo, which launches in the UK on 5th June, has also seen a notable improvement in its predicted values over the same period.Thanks to a new platform and improved quality, the core seller, Expression 1.5 dCi 86 has seen an impressive 9.4 per cent rise to 32.4 per cent over 3 years/60,000 miles. In doing so, it has moved above Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6 HDi 75 S at 31.6 per cent.
