The French brand published the Boreal teaser. It is known that this will be a C-class crossover for markets outside Europe, including Latin America. The company itself states that Boreal “demonstrates the global ambitions of the brand” and “transition to a more prestigious segment”, but so far without indicating technical details. [Carscoops](https://www.carscoops.com/2025/04/new-boreal-suv-seed-as-renault-yyes-internation-growth/) suggests that the name Boreal will be appropriated by a slightly transplant Dacia Bigster.
Renault said that the name for the crossover was borrowed from Greek mythology: Borey is a deity personifying the north stormy wind, and this name “emphasizes the strength, design and status” of the French crossover. According to unofficial information, Boreal will become a relatively affordable model, as well as the mentioned Bigster. If this version is confirmed, then Boreal can separate a motor gamut from Bigster, which includes several power plants of varying degrees of electrification – from a “soft” hybrid to a full.
