He added, "Among the vehicles Renault has made, the Grand Koleos is the most outstanding vehicle, and I especially think it excels in terms of connectivity."

Stefan Deblaes, President of Renault Korea, who also attended the event, said, "I hope this will be an occasion to well preserve the spaciousness and comfort of the Grand Koleos, which was made with great care," and introduced, "Starting with the Grand Koleos, we plan to steadily proceed with plans to make the Busan plant a hub plant, including launching the electric vehicle Scenic next year."

The Grand Koleos released by Renault Korea this time is a successor to the 'Koleos,' Renault's first sports utility vehicle (SUV). The name was created by adding 'Grand,' which means 'great' or 'stylish.' It is also the vehicle that Renault Korea newly launched in the domestic market after four years.

Recently, Renault Korea completed eco-friendly vehicle certification for the Grand Koleos and will start customer deliveries from June 6th, beginning with the E-Tech hybrid model.
