The Renault Koleos spans several build years and named generations (2008-2023). Match a build year to its generation, then see how each group of build years does at its MOT.

“Figures from” is the group of build years behind each card's MOT figures. Years where one generation gave way to the next can sit in a wider group until there's enough history to split them.

How each group of build years performs

Each card shows MOT results for one group of Renault Koleos build years. “Age” means the car's age on the day of its MOT, not its build year. “25+” groups every test on cars aged 25 or older.
