The French-born Kangoo assists people with their hobbies and lifestyle.
Vol.12 / Hisaya Kanno (Freelance Designer) & Yuta Kimura (WOOD VILLAGE CYCLES)

Renault's KANGOO has a high load capacity and a friendly design. The vehicle, which was recently redesigned in March of this year, was driven by Hisaya Kanno, a freelance designer, and Yuta Kimura of Wood Village Cycles in Hatagaya, Japan. They went touring in the nature with their mountain bikes in the spacious loading space. They were excited to hear that the combination of a Kangoo and a bicycle is the best! They were so excited. Let's find out why.

It is easy to feel at ease because you can drive the car as if it were a passenger car.

Now, the time is still before noon. Since we left early in the morning, we still had plenty of time to enjoy a bicycle tour. In summer, when the days are long, getting up early is the way to go. It would be a waste to go back to Tokyo, so they decided to go to Nagatoro, a well-known spot for line cruising.

It's been a long time since I've been to Nagatoro. I am looking forward to the scenery of the river and the shopping district in front of the station.

I hope we can go touring in Nagatoro, too. It would be nice if we could tour in Nagatoro as well.

Mr. Kanno says he drives a "Kangoo" for work, but this is the first time he has driven the new model. We are wondering if he will actually feel the difference in performance when he drives it.

The new model is easier to drive than the old one. It has a better start when you step on the accelerator, it is tougher to drive, and the seats are more comfortable. The visibility is also better, so I don't feel stressed when I drive. I can drive the car as if it were a regular passenger car, so I don't have to be self-conscious about it, which makes me feel at ease.

Both of them drive cars on a regular basis, and they say it is a different kind of fun than riding a bicycle.

I usually drive for work, but sometimes I take a drive by myself to relax. When I am driving, I feel relaxed. I don't have to think about anything else, or I can forget about other things by concentrating on driving. So, when I go out with my friends for a long drive, I try to take on the role of the driver. I like it that way, and I can relax.

I have the opportunity to drive cars both for work and private use, and I often take other people for rides. When I drive alone, it is probably the most luxurious time of all. A car is a very private space, and the time spent in the car gives me a sense of relaxation. It is a precious time for me now.

While they were talking, the Kangoo arrived safely at Nagatoro. Both of them were feeling nostalgic about the scenery that had not changed in the past. They decided to explore the town while pedaling their bicycles slowly.
