Inside, Renault has refreshed the dashboard design in line with some of its more contemporary models. There is some styling semblance to 2025’s Kwid E-Tech in the overall design, though the finer details remain unique to the internal combustion hatchback. The biggest updates come in the form of the new free-standing 10.1-inch central touchscreen and a new 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster that Indian buyers will note looks straight off the larger India-spec Renault Kiger. The dashboard and doors additionally feature colour-coordinated inserts to match the upholstery colour of the variant.

2027 Renault Kwid Powertrain

Renault has made no changes to the Kwid under the hood, with buyers still offered the familiar 1.0-litre, three-cylinder naturally aspirated flex fuel engine.

As for an India launch, Renault has shifted focus away from the entry-level segment in recent years, so it remains uncertain if this update will make its way to India in the future.
