Renault India has updated the Kwid with a refreshed design, a simplified variant line-up and a new pricing strategy aimed at making first-time car ownership more accessible. The hatchback now starts at ₹4.52 lakh (ex-showroom), while the fully loaded Climber variant is effectively available for ₹4.99 lakh through an exclusive ₹15,000 online cash benefit.
Renault has reduced the Kwid range to just two variants:
The move is intended to make the buying process easier, especially for first-time car buyers looking for a straightforward choice.
| Variant | Manual | AMT |
| Evolution | ₹4.52 lakh | ₹4.89 lakh |
| Climber | ₹5.14 lakh | ₹5.60 lakh |
With the online benefit, the Climber MT’s effective price drops to ₹4.99 lakh.
The updated Kwid now adopts Renault’s latest brand identity while retaining its familiar SUV-inspired styling. With 184mm ground clearance, rugged body cladding and compact dimensions, it continues to target buyers looking for an easy-to-drive city hatchback with SUV-like styling.
Feature Highlights
Despite its affordable pricing, the Kwid continues to offer a decent equipment list, including:
Power comes from the familiar 1.0-litre petrol engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual or Easy-R AMT gearbox.
Renault says more than 4.5 lakh customers have bought the Kwid since its launch in 2015. With this update, the company is focusing on simplifying ownership through fewer variants, competitive pricing, and digital purchase benefits.

The updates may not be revolutionary, but they make the Kwid an even stronger value proposition. The simplified line-up removes unnecessary confusion, while the Climber’s effective ₹4.99 lakh price makes it one of the most feature-packed entry-level hatchbacks available today. For first-time buyers, that’s likely to matter more than a complete redesign.
