It is manufactured in passenger and panel van variants, as well as a crossover version, the Dokker Stepway, introduced at the 2012 Istanbul Motor Show, featuring body elements similar to the Sandero Stepway.
It will be marketed in CIS countries and Middle East as Renault Dokker, but not in other parts of the world because it would cannibalize sales of its French-sourced brother, Renault Kangoo.
Features
The name Dokker is a play on the words dock worker, and according to the manufacturer it is expressing the high carrying capacity of the model and its modular interior and robustness.
The passenger version offers five seats and has a luggage capacity of 800 litres (28 cu ft), with a maximum load length of 1.16 m (3.8 ft). It features one sliding side door, and as an option it can be ordered with sliding doors on both sides. The rear bench seat can be split asymmetrically and it can also be tipped forward against the front seats, which creates a carrying capacity of 3,000 litres (110 cu ft) and a load length of 1.57 m (5.2 ft).
The panel van version has a luggage capacity of 3,300 litres (120 cu ft) and a maximum load length of 1.90 m (6.2 ft), thanks to the foldable front passenger seat, that can also be tipped forward against the glove box to free up space for a load length of up to 2.42 m (7.9 ft). If the front seat is removed altogether it provides a carrying capacity of 3,900 litres (140 cu ft) and a maximum load length of load length of up to 3.11 m (10.2 ft).
