Renault has announced the name of its upcoming crossover model that will be revealed at the Moscow International Motor Show on August 29.
Called the Arkana, the crossover will fit into the brand’s global fleet and in terms of size sits in-between the Captur and Kadjar.
The name for the new model is derived from the Latin word ‘Arcanum’, meaning ‘secret’ and Renault says the word has been “used for centuries to mark events and phenomena of special significance.”
The French brand says that the Arkana “is ready to break the mould of the SUV market thanks to its unique design,” and it is likely to include new design elements that will be used on future models.

Renault also said that the Arkana will be the first global model to be built at its Moscow plant. It hasn’t been confirmed whether this model will come to the UK when it goes on sale next year.
