Renault Alaskan pickup gallery 2017
The Renault Alaskan is the French manufacturer's first pickup truck
Despite its unique design, you might spot some similarities with the Nissan Navara
That's because the Renault Alaskan, Nissan Navara and Mercedes X-Class all share the same underpinnings
The Alaskan goes up against stiff competition like the Ford Ranger, Mitsubishi L200, Toyota Hilux and Volkswagen Amarok
They're all members of the one-tonne pickup class, able to carry just over a tonne of cargo in their load beds
Thanks to its powerful 2.3-litre diesel engines, the Alaskan can also tow 3,500kgs
The Alaskan also has selectable four-wheel drive at speeds of up to 62mph and low range gears
It's a handy feature for a pickup often required to access muddy construction sites or farmland
Fuel-economy also isn't too bad for such a large vehicle, with 45mpg possible with the manual gearbox fitted
The Double Cab interior is comfortable and spacious, even for backseat passengers
