Renault India has rolled out a special 10th Anniversary Limited Edition of the Kwid, celebrating a decade of the hatchback that transformed India’s entry-level car market with its SUV-inspired styling and affordability.
Limited to just 500 units, the 10th Anniversary Edition is based on the Techno variant and comes priced at Rs 5.14 lakh (MT) and Rs 5.63 lakh (AMT), ex-showroom pan-India. It is available in two new dual-tone finishes: Fiery Red with Black Roof and Shadow Grey with Black Roof, complemented by shiny black flex Wheels, anniversary decals, and a distinctive yellow grille insert.
Inside, the cabin carries exclusive anniversary-themed touches, including special seat patterns, yellow accents, a leatherette steering wheel with contrast stitching, and illuminated scuff plates.
Renault has also refreshed the entire Kwid lineup, introducing a new nomenclature: Evolution (earlier RXL), Techno (earlier RXT), and Climber. Safety upgrades include 3-point seatbelts for all seats across the range, while the Climber variant now gets six airbags.
The Kwid continues to be powered by a 1.0-litre SCe petrol engine producing 69bhp and 92.5Nm of torque paired with either a 5-speed manual or Easy-R AMT transmission. The Kwid boasts a ground clearance of 184mm, and SUV-inspired stance.
Prices for the updated Kwid range start at R 4.29 lakh (ex-showroom), with the AMT option beginning at Rs 4.99 lakh, making it one of the most affordable automatic cars in India.
Speaking on the launch, Venkatram Mamillapalle, MD of Renault India, said, “The Kwid has been instrumental in shaping Renault’s journey in India, redefining the entry segment with its innovation, accessibility, and over 95% localisation. Having already set new benchmarks in style within the micro-SUV category, the 10th Anniversary Edition marks a significant milestone, celebrating a decade of customer trust and our commitment to delivering high-value mobility solutions.”
