Renault India has launched a new RXT (O) trim for the Kiger at Rs 7.37 lakh (ex-showroom). Based on the RXT, this one sits just below the top-spec RXZ and packs a few extra goodies. The RXT (O) is powered by only a 1-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with manual and AMT options. 

Take a look at the prices:

	Kiger RXT	Kiger RXT (O)
1-litre NA Petrol Manual	Rs 7.02 lakh	Rs 7.37 lakh (+Rs 35,000)
1-litre NA Petrol AMT	Rs 7.52 lakh	Rs 7.87 lakh*

*Expected Price

For the extra dough, a few additional features from the top-spec RXZ have trickled down to the Kiger RXT (O). These are the: 

• LED headlamps

• 16-inch alloy wheels

• PM 2.5 AC filter

• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

Other features in this trim include an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted audio controls, LED instrument cluster (similar to the Kwid and Triber), and keyless entry with push-button start. Passenger safety is taken care of by four airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, rear view camera, and ISOFIX child seat mounts. 

The only gripe with the RXT (O) is that it is available in just one colour -- red with black roof. 

The Kiger RXT (O) gets only a 1-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine generating 72PS and 96Nm. It can be paired with a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT. 

Bookings for the Kiger RXT (O) will commence from August 6, 2021. This Renault sub-4 metre SUV locks horns with the Nissan Magnite, Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, and Tata Nexon.
