The Renault Kwid is one of the popular entry-level cars sold in India, and one of the top-selling models from the French carmaker. The car was launched in 2015, and till now the company has sold over 4.3 lakh units of the small car, which is certainly an impressive number. The car is equally popular in the used car market for anyone looking for a small car on a budget, as depending on the condition you can get one for Rs. 2.5 lakh to Rs. 4 lakh. So, if you too have been considering one, here are some pros and cons of buying a used Renault Kwid.
The Kwid is certainly a good-looking car. It was the first model in its segment to adopt the SUV-isq styling, and that has worked in its favour. The car looks bold and rugged and comes in a range of vibrant colours.
Depending on the variant you get, Renault offers a range of smart features like - LED daytime running lamps, LED taillights, an 8-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a digital LED instrument cluster and more.
Despite its compact footprint, the Kwid is longer and wider than its rivals, and it also comes with the longest wheelbase in its segment, which translates to decent cabin space.
Cons:
The Renault Kwid certainly looks quite attractive, however, the car's built quality is not very impressive. Especially, the cabin, which comes with low-quality plastics, while the buttons and dials are also flimsy.
The Kwid's engine performance is not the best. It does get a peppy 1.0-litre petrol engine, but the 800 cc version is simply underpowered. Also, the optional automated manual transmission or AMT unit is not very responsive.
While the cabin is quite spacious, there isn't enough space for your knick-knacks. The Kwid has an absolute dearth of storage spaces, especially at the rear. Even the bottle holders are barely big enough to hold a small wattle bottle.
