Renault has named its new C-segment crossover as the Renault Arkana. The new global model will premiere at the Moscow International Motor Show 2018, on August 29.

The new model’s name is derived from Latin Arcanum (‘secret’), which was used for centuries to mark events and phenomena of special significance. According to the French carmaker, Arkana underlines the uniqueness of the future crossover and its magnetism. 

The Renault Arkana, according to the company, is a distinctive new crossover and “is ready to break the mould of the SUV market thanks to its unique design.” It will be first presented in Russia as a showcar and launched on the market in 2019, followed by a rollout in other countries.
