An innovative and affordable vehicle, the new Renault KWID is positioned as the entry-point into Renault\u2019s product line-up. <\/p>\n
It overturns established entry segment design cues thanks to its robust, stylish exterior plus a modern and welcoming interior equipped with generous cabin space as well as features and fitments normally unattainable in its class. Meticulously designed, the new KWID hatchback is sure to meet the needs of anyone looking to buy an entry-level car. <\/p>\n
Quality interior appointments ensuring that driver and passengers stay connected include aMediaNav\u00ae navigation\/multi-media system complete with large 7\u201d (18cm) touchscreendisplay, radio and Bluetooth\u00ae connectivity housed in its piano black centre console with chrome surround (Dynamique only). This eminently modern newcomer features SUV styling and construction. Its high stance and durable design underscore a sense of security while its longer wheelbase (2 422mm) allows for a spacious comfortable cabin plus more rear leg room. <\/p>\n
Boot space of 300 litres puts the new Renault KWID on par with an upper segment vehicle. Both KWID derivatives are powered by a new 999cc Smart Control efficiency (SCe) engine mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. With its distinctive SUV-like design and high ground clearance (at 180mm, more than any of its competitors) KWID offers a high driving position and greater visibility making it ideal for zipping around in urban traffic or cruising down the open highway.<\/p>\n
Entry-level KWID is modern, smart and stylish inside and out. It combines the comfort and functional user-friendliness of a city car with a spacious interior and a raft of stowage solutions.<\/p>\n
With the introduction of the new KWID, Renault has gone a considerable step further in designing a new breed of vehicle in the growing small-car segment.<\/p>\n
INNOVATIVE SUV-INSPIRED STYLING WITH CLASS-LEADING SPACE<\/span><\/b> <\/p>\n \u201cKWID\u2019s SUV lines mirror its tough, robust character and underpin its distinctive modern look,\u201d says Laurens van den Acker, Senior Vice-President, Renault Corporate Design. <\/p>\n Renault KWID is designed to turn heads. Its class-leading ground clearance combined with short front and rear overhangs exude an impression of strength, reliability and the look associated with SUVs. <\/p>\n The boldly structured front grille design highlights Renault\u2019s trademark diamond-shaped logo while its C-shaped headlights incorporate the brand\u2019s new lighting signature. <\/p>\n KWID\u2019s slightly sculpted sides provide a fluid, dynamic touch, with the rectangular forms of the black cladded and flared wheel arches a further pointer to its SUV breeding while also affording additional protection. While the lower door decor underlines the KWID\u2019s robust character, the steeply-raked, forward-positioned windscreen lends a sense of movement and fluidity to the high waistline which rises slightly at the rear. The large windows ensure good visibility for the driver and play a big part in travelling comfort while the sharp creases on the bonnet give it a muscular look. <\/p>\n At the rear, the lower part of the bumper comes with a black trim \u2013 another SUV cue \u2013 and the body-coloured tailgate spoiler adds to the car\u2019s dynamic stance. <\/p>\n The new KWID\u2019s interior carries over the same bold and confidence-inspiring styling as the outside. The horizontal, uncluttered lines of the dashboard convey an impression of width and refinement. The digital instrument cluster and piano black centre fascia which houses the centrally-positioned MediaNAV system creates a contemporary high-quality feel that combines practicality and style (Dynamique only).<\/p>\n Make the most of weekends and enjoy KWID\u2019s smart, trendy interior together with classleading space that comfortably seats five and complements a host of additional and thoughtful features.<\/p>\n The height adjustable front seats are generously sized offering superior comfort while the electric power steering and one-touch lane change indicator make driving a breeze. Electric front windows add to driver and front passenger convenience while the powerful airconditioning with heater ensures driving pleasure irrespective of the weather. All controls are easy to reach from both driver and passenger sides. The open storage space facing the front passenger, lower glove box (plus upper glove box in Dynamique variant), driver and passenger in-door storage space with 1-litre bottle holder and rear parcel tray translate to practical and convenient stowage space.<\/p>\n The compact 1.0- litre 3-cylinder Smart Control efficiency (SCe) engine powering both KWID models has been optimised for power and performance and pushes out peak power of 50 kW @ 5 500 rpm and maximum torque of 91 Nm @ 4 250 rpm.<\/p>\n Drivers will enjoy its good responsive-ness and drivability at low revs and wide torque band across the rpm range. An extremely fuel efficient petrol powered engine, it\u2019s paired to a 5-speed manual gearbox and delivers an incredible 4.71 F<\/span>\/100 km. The fuel tank holds 28 F<\/span>.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An innovative and affordable vehicle, the new Renault KWID is positioned as the entry-point into
