The Kangoo is a van and mini-MPV produced by Renault. The rear windows and seats can be deleted, producing a small van sold as the 'Kangoo Express'. The Kangoo is popular with the mobility-impaired and wheelchair users due to its height and accessibility. It can be adapted to include mounting points for wheelchairs. Both the Kangoo and Kangoo Express are available in 4x4 versions, with raised ride height and altered styling. A lengthened version is also available, with an increased cargo area. The Kangoo is manufactured in Renault's MCA plant in Maubeuge, France and in Renault´s Santa Isabel Plant in Argentina
