The Renault Koleos, a mid-size crossover SUV, was introduced in 2008 as Renault's flagship model in the burgeoning SUV segment. The 2008-2009 models, the first generation of the Koleos, were based on the Nissan X-Trail platform and shared a lot of mechanical components with its Japanese cousin, marking a collaboration between the two carmakers. This strategic partnership allowed Renault to enter the SUV market with a more competitive offering, benefiting from Nissan's expertise in compact SUVs. The Koleos was designed to appeal to a global audience, aiming to offer a blend of robust practicality, comfort, and stylish design.

Powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder petrol engine or a 2.0-liter diesel engine, the Koleos offered decent performance and fuel economy for its time. It featured a spacious and versatile interior with comfortable seating for five adults, a generous cargo space, and a host of convenient features such as climate control, audio system, and optional navigation. The Koleos also offered a high driving position, a commanding view of the road, and a relatively comfortable ride. Although its design wasn't groundbreaking, it offered a blend of practicality and style that resonated with some buyers, particularly those looking for a spacious and comfortable SUV with a relatively affordable price tag. While the first-generation Koleos wasn't a runaway success, it laid the groundwork for future generations that would refine its strengths and address some of its weaknesses.
