Used Renault Kadjar for sale in Europe

About the Renault Kadjar

The Renault Kadjar is a compact crossover SUV sold in Europe from 2015 until 2022. It sits between small crossovers and larger family SUVs. It shares its platform and many mechanical parts with the second-generation Nissan Qashqai, so some components and service knowledge carry across.

It suits buyers who want a higher seating position, a practical boot and relaxed everyday driving. It is offered as a five-door hatchback-style SUV only. Most cars are front-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive was offered with selected diesel versions, so check the exact specification of any car you are considering.

Petrol and diesel engines are both common in our listings. Petrol cars use small turbocharged engines, mainly 1.2 and 1.3 litre. Diesels use 1.5 and 1.6 litre engines, with a 1.7 litre unit added later. Gearboxes are a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic called EDC.

Generations

• Kadjar Phase 1 (2015-2019) — The original model launched in 2015 with 1.2 TCe petrol and 1.5 and 1.6 dCi diesel engines, with manual or EDC gearboxes.
• Kadjar Phase 2 facelift (2019-2022) — The 2019 update brought revised styling and interior changes, and newer engines such as the 1.3 TCe petrol and the 1.7 Blue dCi diesel.

What to check when buying a used Renault Kadjar

Start with the service history and a cold-start test drive, then check the engine, gearbox and electronics against the specific version on offer. Compare the car with the documents, including mileage records where they are available.

• Service history and mileage

  Ask for dated invoices showing regular oil changes and any major work. Compare the recorded mileage with the wear on the pedals, seat bolsters and steering wheel. Gaps in the history matter more on turbocharged engines, which depend on clean oil.

• EDC gearbox behaviour · EDC dual-clutch gearbox

  On the test drive, pull away gently from rest and use stop-start traffic if you can. Look for judder, hesitation, harsh shifts or warning messages. Ask whether the gearbox has had software updates or repairs, and check the paperwork.

• Emissions system health · Diesel engines

  Diesels with a particulate filter and EGR valve can suffer if used mainly for short trips. Check for warning lights, rough running or smoke, and ask how the car has been used. Look for evidence of filter or EGR work in the history.

• Oil level and engine noise · Turbo petrol engines

  Check the oil level and its condition, and listen for rattles or unusual noises at start-up. Ask about oil change intervals and any reported engine issues or recalls. A diagnostic scan from a specialist can show stored fault codes.

• Infotainment and electronics

  Test the touchscreen, navigation, Bluetooth, parking sensors, cameras and all the windows and locks. Slow or freezing screens and intermittent electrical faults are worth noting, and software updates may help. Make sure every function you want works before you commit.

• Four-wheel-drive system · 4x4 versions

  If the car has four-wheel drive, check that it drives smoothly in tight turns and that there are no drivetrain noises or leaks. Ask whether the transfer and rear differential oil have been serviced, as maintenance records vary.

• Tyres, brakes and underbody

  Look for uneven tyre wear, which can point to alignment or suspension problems. Check brake discs for lips and corrosion. Inspect the underbody, sills and wheel arches for damage, poor repairs or rust, especially on cars from salted-road regions.
