Latest Updates on KWID
Renault India has launched a new Night and Day edition for the Kwid.

Expert's Opinion on KWID
Design

- Renault has done a good job with the styling and the Kwid looks a lot more premium than the entry level car that it isCool quirky design elements like the low mounted headlamps, chunky roof rails
- Slim DRL signature brighten up the design
- Very nicely designed hub caps that actually look like alloy wheels
- Rear design is rather simple
Interiors

- The actual design of the cabin is clean, simple and just works
- The 8-inch touchscreen has a simple easy to use interface
- The digital analogue drivers display on the other hand is great. Large, easy to read and give you all the information you need
- The quality and fit and finish are what you’d expect from the segment with hard plastics all around and fabric seat covers
- In terms of practicality, there is a lot of storage spaces peppered all around the cabin but the lack of cupholders is somewhat of a miss
- Touchscreen brightness, resolution and speed are in the budget category
- Lack of any cupholders is somewhat of a miss.
Space & Practicality

- For average sized adults the Kwid is a good fit
- The seats are supportive and the cushioning is adequate
- The boot space is 289 litres which means you can fit one medium and one small sized hard luggage in addition a couple of soft duffle bags in here easily

- Taller people will find a lack of knee room and seat support as well as find the non-adjustable headrests an annoyance

- Yes, the Kwid does have a nicely balanced suspension

- AC Usage: Keeping the air conditioning on at full blast in peak summer can drop the city mileage by 1-2 kmpl. The 'Speed Sweet Spot': The Kwid is most efficient on highways when driven between 70 kmph and 80 kmph. If you cross 100 kmph, the small 1.0L engine works harder, and the mileage drops significantly.The AMT Factor: While the AMT is technically tuned for high efficiency, in real-world stop-and-go traffic, it can sometimes deliver slightly less than the manual because you have less control over the gear shifts.Load: Carrying four adults and luggage will noticeably decrease fuel economy compared to driving solo.
