• The year 2015 has been a bumper month for car
  launches with leading automakers coming out with
  new models. Even as the year has reached the half
  mark, the motor industry sector in India is
  booming.
• With the Diwali season approaching, Renault is
  gearing to take advantage of the festivities,
  along with all the other automakers. Renault is
  all set to launch its new car Kwid - an entry
  level crossover hatchback. Dealers have started
  accepting bookings in some cities. The booking
  amount for the Renault Kwid varies from Rs 20,000
  to Rs 50,000 depending on the location of the
  dealerships.

• Renault had unveiled its small hatchback for the
  Indian market, the Kwid, in Chennai earlier this
  year. As many Spy pictures keep surfacing on the
  net, it can be concluded that it is ready to be
  launched. The upcoming car will be manufactured
  at Nissan-Renaults facility near Chennai. When
  launched, it will take on the likes of Maruti
  Alto 800 and Hyundai Eon.

• Though an entry level car, the Kwid looks more
  like a crossover with its high set bonnet and
  plastic cladding. Renault is promoting this
  upcoming model as a micro SUV.
• The Renault Kwid will be powered by a 3-cylinder,
  800 cc petrol motor developed by Renault Nissan
  Technology Business Centre India. The engine is
  expected to be cast out of aluminium, will be
  extremely compact and lightweight. The engine
  will return best in class mileage. The Kwid will
  be the first of many models based on
  Renault-Nissans jointly developed CMF-A
  platform. This platform is also set to underpin
  another small car by Datsun based on the Redi-GO
  concept. Transmission options on offer will be a
  5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT. Considering the
  engine specification one can expect it to reach
  a top speed of approximately 110 to 120 Kmph. It
  could reach a 100 kmph speed mark in about 20
  seconds. One can expect it to produce a maximum
  mileage of about 26 Kmpl.

• It is anticipated that the front axle might have
  a McPherson strut, while the rear one could have
  torsion beam type of system.
• The Kwid will come with all the features that one
  can expect from a small hatchback. However, the
  highlight of the Kwids features list will be the
  Renault Media NAV, which includes FM Radio,
  Sat-Nav, Bluetooth and a 7-inch touch screen
  interface. The latest spy shots shows that the
  Kwid gets roof rails, alloy wheels, fog lamps,
  and chrome embellishments all around. It also
  will feature some of the first-in-class features
  like driver side airbag (optional).

• The Renault Kwid India launch is expected to take
  place around the festive season this year and
  will carry a starting price tag of just around
  Rs. 3.0 lakh (ex-showroom).
