The Renault Kwid 2025 comes into the new year with new design flourishes and a bolstered feature set, maintaining its popularity in the budget hatchback market. Small, fuel-efficient, and bristling with clever technology, the Kwid continues to be popular among price-sensitive urban motorists. With evident cosmetic refinements and intelligent interior tweaks, this variant promises to deliver more without overburdening the wallet. Here’s a closer examination of what the 2025 model has to offer.
Battery and Electric Setup
The Renault Kwid 2025 still operates on a petrol platform and doesn’t have an electric battery variant yet. It has a trusty 1.0-litre petrol engine with a 5-speed manual or AMT transmission, which provides adequate energy efficiency for everyday running around. While battery-powered elements such as the smart infotainment system and digital instrument cluster are retained, the car is not electric.
Under the Hood and In Your Pocket: Engine and Technology
The 2025 Kwid features a 999cc, 3-cylinder petrol motor delivering 67 bhp and 91 Nm of torque. The engine is paired with a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT transmission based on the variant.
It also has such important tech features as an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto-compatible, and an all-digital LED instrument cluster. While it lacks a premium camera system, rear park sensors and a rearview camera can be had for enhanced safety.
Features That Enhance Daily Driving
Renault provides a number of changes in the 2025 Kwid to give it a premium feel. These range from LED DRLs, new shades, body graphics, and chic-looking 14-inch wheels. On the inside, the upholstery has been updated with new designs and superior quality material. Dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and seatbelt reminders are a part of the safety offering. It also features a quick USB charger and voice recognition for the infotainment system.
Price, Offers, and Available Variants
The Renault Kwid 2025 is competitively priced at approximately ₹4.70 lakh and up to ₹6.45 lakh (ex-showroom). It comes in various variants such as RXE, RXL, RXT, and Climber editions with each variant designed to suit different consumers’ requirements. Renault is also likely to launch festive season offers such as exchange bonuses and low down payment plans to spur early sales.
