Renault India has launched the Kiger facelift, following a two-week teaser campaign. Prices for the compact SUV start at ₹6.29 lakh and go up to ₹11.29 lakh, maintaining the same price range as the previous model. The outgoing Kiger was available in four trims, while the new version also offers four trims: Authentic, Evolution, Techno, and Emotion.
The new Kiger’s entry-level price is just marginally higher than its predecessor’s. The top-spec variant is also priced closely to the previous generation’s top model. The Techno CVT and top-spec Turbo manual trims are available at a special introductory price.
Under the hood, the Kiger continues to offer the same engine choices: a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with 72 hp, available with a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT, and a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 100 hp, which can be paired with a CVT or a 5-speed manual gearbox. The prices for the AMT variants of the naturally aspirated engine are yet to be announced.
Exterior enhancements include a redesigned front bumper, a new Renault logo, updated paint options, revised C-pillar graphics, smoked reverse lights, and new 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.
The interior remains largely unchanged, but all models now include six airbags as standard, along with ESP, a tire-pressure monitor, and hill-start assist. The top trim also adds ventilated seats, a 360-degree camera, automatic headlights and wipers, a wireless charger, and an 8-inch infotainment screen.
