Renault launches the all-new KWID

Renault, the number one European brand in India, launched the all-new KWID at an attractive price starting at Rs 2.83 lakhs (ex-showroom, Delhi). After the tremendous success of Kwid in India, the all-new Kwid is a breakthrough product in terms of design, innovation and modernity, while offering even more value and best-in-class cost of ownership.

Built on the pillars of attractiveness and innovation, KWID has been a game-changing product for Renault in India with 3-lakh+ happy customers. The all-new KWID is bolder, more stylish and comes loaded with many first-in-class features. The all-new KWID is available in both 0.8L and 1.0L SCe (Smart Control efficiency) powertrains with manual and automated transmission options.
               
“With innovation in its DNA, the SUV-inspired Renault KWID has been a true game-changer and volume driver for Renault India. The all-new KWID’s next-gen technology combined with its sleek style and innovative design will ensure that KWID continues to be a major disruptor in India’s entry car segment. The impressive interiors complement the striking exteriors, making it a style statement inside out. With a rapidly increasing customer base, KWID has successfully created a breakthrough proposition in India’s automotive market and has been one of the most successful launches in the mini-car segment in recent times,” said Venkatram Mamillapalle, country CEO & MD, Renault India Operations.

Renault has paid careful attention to ensure that the ‘attractive’ pillar of the car, which has been a key USP, is taken several notches higher with many design enhancements to the interior and exterior of the car. Staying true to its focus on innovation, Renault has ensured the right mix of modern and convenient features in the all-new KWID. Another aspect on which the all-new KWID delivers superiorly is on the ownership cost, enabled by class-leading warranty and affiliated services, which further enhance the ‘affordable’ pillar of the all-new KWID.

Built to stand out, the all-new KWID features enhanced SUV-inspired design with wheel arch claddings, side decals, all new R14 volcano grey muscular multi-spoke wheels along with a high ground clearance of 184 mm. The 14-inch wheel size provides improved handling and performance even at high speeds. 

The all-new KWID also features stylish dual-tone glossy ORVMs synchronised with the wheels and side decals. The new stylish chrome grille elegantly merging with the silver streak DRL brings an air of sophistication. The boomerang-shaped sculpted roof and the arching roof rails, adds prominence to the car’s renowned SUV look. The all-new KWID also comes with SUV skid plates that prevent damage to the under body of the vehicle on rough terrains. The integrated roof spoiler enhances the overall appeal and makes the KWID look sportier.

The uniquely positioned SUV-styled headlamps incorporate the brand’s new lighting signature and first-in-class Silver Streak LED DRLs create a striking impression and give the car a premium appeal. The first-in-class tail lamps with C-shaped LED light guides leave a distinct trail and provide higher visibility.

The all-new KWID is future ready and comes equipped with a fully Digital Instrument Cluster with LED illumination and sportier graphics. The new digital tachometer along with the gear-shift indicator prompts the driver to shift gears to extract optimum performance and fuel efficiency. The first-in-class 20.32 cm touchscreen MediaNAV Evolution takes infotainment to the next level with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Video Playback and Voice Recognition – which helps the driver control everything hands-free, fast and easy. The first-in-class reverse parking camera with guidelines helps to park even in the tightest spots. The all-new KWID offers a fast charging USB port with a power output of 2.4A. It also comes equipped with front and rear 12V power sockets to ensure passengers are always connected while on the move.
