The French-born Kangoo assists people with their hobbies and lifestyle.
Vol.18 / Naoya Kawachi (THE DAY Director)

RENAULT is a leading French car brand. The Kangoo, synonymous with RENAULT, is a car with a large load space that can carry a lot of luggage and an excellent design that blends in well with both the city and nature. It is a perfect companion for both work and play, and has gained the support of many people. I've always wanted to put a bicycle in a car and go on a trip someday," says one of the owners of the fashion brand "TH". Naoya Kawachi, director of the fashion brand "THE DAY," says, "I've always wanted to put a bike in the car and go on a trip someday. With his beloved Kangoo on board, he set off for Lake Saiko, one of the Five Lakes of Fuji.

The design blends easily into both urban and natural landscapes.

The "Kangoo" is a nimble ride toward West Lake. The model we drove this time was a newly designed model, with new front and rear logo plates, and bumpers in the same color as the body.

The Kangoo was originally used by the French Post Office. Compared to the design of those days, I think the impression has changed considerably. It has a sharper face, a more modern impression, and a style that is more accessible to a wider range of people. I think the design blends in easily with both the city and the natural landscape.

The body with its intonation gives the impression of strength. Mr. Kawachi, who is actually behind the wheel of the car, says, "I get that impression from the driving performance as well.

When I was driving, I thought that the Kangoo has a very good reaction when you step on the accelerator pedal. If it were too responsive, I would be a little worried. In that sense, it feels just right, and it gives me a sense of security.

Mr. Kawachi demonstrates his stable driving skills as he talks. His steady handling of the steering wheel is very dependable.

I like riding a bicycle, but I also like driving. When I am driving, I feel nothingness and my mind is reset. That feeling is probably what makes me comfortable.
