Renault Kwid is a compact hatchback with a 5-seat capacity and an SUV-inspired design that gives it good road presence, though it doesn't have the power to drive like an SUV. Its small dimensions make it easy to park. More details on the Kwid's mileage, specifications and features are provided in the sections below.
The current-generation Renault Kwid offers a single 1-litre 3-cylinder petrol engine. The earlier generation was available with a smaller 0.8-litre engine, which has since been discontinued. The petrol variants come with both manual and automatic transmission options, while the factory CNG option is offered only with certain manual variants.
The interior of the Kwid may not look stunning, but it doesn't feel dated either. A touchscreen infotainment system, digital instrument cluster and other modern features give the cabin a contemporary vibe. The rear seats have fixed headrests and comfortably seat two adults, while the front seats get adjustable headrests and are well-cushioned for the driver and co-driver. The cabin also offers multiple storage pockets and compartments, which is a practical touch.
The Renault Kwid petrol returns up to 22 kmpl, making it a great option for daily city commuting. The fuel tank capacity is only 28 litres, but the high mileage makes up for it. The CNG variants deliver up to 33 km/kg, which is quite impressive. There's nothing breathtaking about its performance, except that it feels stable through sharp corners thanks to its design.
Depending on the testing year and model, the Renault Kwid has achieved a 1- to 2-star Global NCAP rating, which is fairly ordinary. Along with a reversing camera on the higher trims, you get ABS, TPMS, EBD, ESC and multiple airbags across the Kwid variants.
The Renault Kwid is a small car with decent cabin space. Its 279-litre boot isn't huge but is still better than most cars in its segment, and folding the rear seats expands it to up to 620 litres.
A reverse parking camera, touchscreen infotainment with smart connectivity, and dual-tone exterior options are the top features of the Kwid.
