The Renault Kwid is a compact hatchback that was introduced in 2015. It is gaining popularity in Kenya as it offers excellent fuel efficiency, affordable price tag, and practicality. The Kwid rivals the likes of Suzuki Swift, Nissan Magnite, Hyundai Atos, Datsun Go, and Toyota Starlet.

Renault Kwid Interior

The Kwid surprisingly has a modern and well-equipped cabin compared to other cars in its class. Its dashboard is dual-toned and clean. Renault used a mixture of hard plastics and soft touch material throughout the cabin but it doesn’t feel cheap. Higher grades get gloss black inserts and silver accents to give a premium vibe.

In terms of space the front seats have decent cushioning and support for both the driver and front passenger. The seats can be adjusted to ensure maximum comfort. The second-row seats have good legroom and headroom but can comfortably suit two adults. Three occupants in the rear seats will find the space tight.

Standard features in the Renault Kwid include a digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth, USB connectivity, Air Conditioning, and a Centrally-positioned 8″ Screen MediaNAV system.

Renault Kwid Exterior

The Kwid has an SUV-inspired exterior design which makes it outstanding from other hatchbacks. The front end is characterized by a bold grille with Renault’s logo, halogen headlamps, and LED daytime running lights. On the sides, it features plastic cladding around the wheel arches while the roofline slopes gently to the rear giving it a sporty look. The rear-end boats have C-shaped taillights, a black rear bumper, and Kwid badging.

Renault Kwid Engine and Transmission Options

The Renault Kwid comes with either a 799 cc BR08DE I3 engine or a 999 cc BR10DE I3 engine. They are paired to a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automated manual transmission.
