According to car mag, the ride is best in class. Although the Merc will likely be better.
Then there’s things like the 360 camera view for when off-roading.
It’ll also tow 3500 kg which not all bakkies can tow.
The load gate will hold half a ton.

I like the Alaskan. Looks are good and the Tech so far also looks good.
Renault must just price this thing right, otherwise it would be another Navara/Amarok scenario where they wont sell more than a 100 per month.

So, first a Japanese Company, owned by a French Company names a bakkie after the misspelt name of a region in Spain (Navarra).
Then the French company does a badge 'n nose job on their subsidiaries pick up & names it after the largest state in the US.
What's next? Renault-Nissan's discount brand, Dacia, launching a stripped down version of the Navara/Alaskan & giving it an appropriately discounted name?
Look out for the Dacia Scunthorpe or Dacia East Rand....

Careful Manny - Neil will come after you with some misinformed facts about you personally soon ........... Renault/Dacias are the Amaroks of this Forum - untouchable. 
I refuse to be POLITICALLY CORRECT to impress others - Deal with it
