Special Equipment: Sound System from French Audio Brand "FOCAL"

People living in France often design their surroundings to suit their tastes, whether it's repainting their home's walls, repairing furniture, or crafting shelves and garden chairs themselves.

Inspired by this lifestyle, the limited edition Kangoo "Pratique," meaning "practical" in French, has been released.

The body color is a dedicated shade, Grise Métal. It features a combination of silver and black bumpers, black center caps and wheel bolt covers on the wheels, and a special FOCAL sound system from the French brand as standard audio equipment.

The base model is the "Kangoo Zen," equipped with a 1.2-liter engine producing a maximum output of 84kW (115ps) and peak torque of 190Nm (19.4kgm). It is available with either a 6-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) or a 6-speed manual transmission.

A total of 120 units will be sold with the EDC transmission and 40 units with the 6-speed manual. The price for the EDC is ¥2,619,000, and for the 6MT, it's ¥2,519,000, both kept at a modest ¥20,000 premium over the base model.
