Kwid is the result of an International design competition

Kwid had to be stylish, roomy and offer great fuel economy. The endeavour was to make our customer's life easier with a robust, innovatively designed car.
Its body and chassis were tested in Japan, body equipment was evaluated in Korea and endurance tests were carried out in France, while India was the backdrop for the overall assembly testing.
Indian suppliers contributed 98 per cent and high localisation helped us offer extremely low cost of ownership - 17 per cent lesser than competition.
Kwid was the result of an international design competition, aimed at creating an A-segment car for international markets. The Renault India design centre worked on the project with an SUV theme since its conceptualisation.
Our designers spent considerable time in India to deeply understand the market, customers and create a mixture of traditional techniques and culture, clubbed with modern technology.
It borrows the Duster DNA with simple lines, wheels stretching at the outer edges of the body, high ground clearance, wing extenders and versatility in use.
