The French-born Kangoo assists people with their hobbies and lifestyle.
Vol.14 / HOUYHNHNM FISHING CLUB

The Renault KANGOO can carry a variety of cargo and has a cool design. This spring, the KANGOO was reborn with a crisp, sharp look and a significant upgrade in driving performance. The passengers in this vehicle are members of the HOUYHNHNM's FISHING CLUB, who enjoy fishing under the motto of "fun, fun, chill out. With lots of outdoor goods and their prized fishing equipment in the cargo area, they set out for Lake Takataki in Chiba Prefecture.

It looks compact, but it's spacious inside.

Driving around the Takataki Lake area, we look for good spots. The car allows us to fish in a variety of locations while making quick trips.

It is also nice to be able to fish without leaving the luggage in the car. I like to be able to fish with a minimum of equipment while fishing from land," said Ichikawa.

We were supposed to go to Kawaguchiko today, but rain was forecast for the area, so we came to Takatakiko at a moment's notice. It is difficult to deal with such sudden changes when traveling by train or bus. In that sense, I think having a car is a big advantage.

The spacious interior makes driving more comfortable, and all three say that although the car looks compact, it is spacious inside. The new model is also much quieter, so we can have smooth conversations.

You know this Kangoo is the diesel one, right? Despite that, it is very quiet. Even when sitting in the front and back, it is easy to hear everyone's voice" (Ichikawa)

One-box cars often have problems with quietness, but that is not the case with the Kangoo. That's what I'd expect from a one-box car. Also, I like the fact that the ceiling is high, so it doesn't feel oppressive. Even with rods hanging above, it doesn't feel cramped.

The seats are comfortable, too. Also, the back seat has a table like an airplane. It is convenient for eating and may be useful when driving with small children.

As we were talking about this, we came close to the next point. Would we be able to catch fish?
