Leasing prices on Renault’s flagship SUV, the Rafale, have dropped sharply, making it an unexpectedly affordable option for drivers seeking both style and space. Currently, the Rafale is available for just £203.82 per month through Leasing Options via the Auto Express Buy a Car service – a price point lower than many traditional superminis.
Deal Details and Costs
The two-year lease requires either a £2,795.83 initial payment (over 12 months) or a reduced £2,356.81 upfront (over nine months). The latter increases the monthly cost to £223. Mileage is capped at 5,000 miles per year, but can be upgraded to 8,000 for an additional £27.16 monthly.
Performance and Efficiency
The Rafale features a 1.2-liter full-hybrid engine combining a petrol unit with dual electric motors, producing nearly 200 horsepower. Renault claims impressive fuel efficiency, up to 60mpg. Despite its size, the Rafale provides a comfortable driving experience thanks to a smooth engine and refined handling.
Standard Features in Techno Trim
The deal applies to the Rafale Techno trim, which is already well-equipped with features including:
- 20-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels
- Automatic dual-zone climate control
- Wireless smartphone charger
- A 12-inch portrait touchscreen running Google OS
The interior offers generous space for passengers, with a 535-liter boot providing ample cargo capacity.
Why This Matters
The Rafale’s aggressive pricing reflects a wider trend in the automotive market: manufacturers are increasingly using competitive leasing deals to attract buyers. The car’s hybrid engine positions it well in a market shifting towards electrification, while its stylish design and comfortable interior make it a desirable option even beyond the price point.
This deal is limited and subject to change, so potential buyers should act quickly to secure the current offer. For more Renault Rafale leasing options, visit the Auto Express Buy A Car service.
