Renault Kwid 1.0 Launch: Highlights

1 mins read

Renault Kwid 1.0, the much anticipated small car from the French car manufacturer was launched in India at Rs. 3.82 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). As the name suggests, the car is powered by a bigger 1.0-litre petrol engine that offers more power and torque and comes with some minor style updates. Currently, Renault plans to offer the 1.0-litre engine only with the higher variants RXT and RXT (O) with features similar to what we have seen in the 0.8-litre trim. With the new engine being the only key modification offered in the Kwid 1.0, the price difference between the RXT variants of the two cars is just Rs, 22,000.

Highlights

Visually, the Renault Kwid 1.0 looks largely identical to the regular version of the Kwid, barring for a sporty chequered flag decal on the sides. Also, the updated Renault Kwid comes with new bigger ORVMs, which now come in silver/black dual tone colour. Apart from these the car doesn't even get a new body colour option dedicated to the Renault Kwid 1000cc version. Kwid 1.0-litre RXT The 1.0-litre engine develops 67bhp and 91Nm of torque as compared to 53bhp and 72Nm of torque on the 0.8-litre engine variant. The carmaker used the same 800cc engine but reworked upon it by expanding its bore and stroke, to get that extra 200cc, converting it into the Renault Kwid 1000cc. The more powerful variant returns an ARAI certified fuel efficiency of 23.01 kmpl, slightly lower when compared to the 25.17 kmpl figure available on the 0.8-litre variant.

In fact, Renault has made some considerable modification to the Kwid 1.0 that has improved the NVH levels of the car. These changes will be implemented in the 800cc version as well.
