The Brazilian division of the Rombo brand has confirmed the debut of a new model. This is the new Renault Oroch 2023, a pick-up based on the first generation of the Duster. Through a preview, it shows the main features of the model, which will be sold with a powerful argument: among others, a double cabin.
The Renault Alaskan did not have a great commercial success, that pick-up that the Rombo men pulled out of the sleeve in a three-way play with the Mercedes X-Class and the Nissan Navara. These pick-ups are more valued in other markets such as the South American ones where the Brazilian division of the French brand is already preparing the presentation and launch of a new model with this main feature.
Its about Renault Oroch 2023. Those of Renault Brazil have advanced a small advance in which you can see part of the identity of the new model, which is based on the first generation of the successful SUV of the Romanian brand, the Dacia Duster but with Rhombus logos on the front and back. The graphic preview reveals a more playful than professional design, which are the two main uses it will have. But with one that will stand out especially, and that is a double cab configuration.
