- New seat upholstery, 6 airbags could be on offer
- Existing Kiger engine options are expected to be carried over
- Facelifted Renault Kiger price might be between Rs 6.5 lakh and Rs 11.5 lakh
Renault Kiger facelift teaser details
New green exterior shade and C-pillar graphics
According to the Kiger teaser, one can spot three key things: a new green paint, fresh graphics on the C-pillar and a smoked-out reverse light section. Previously spied test mules showed minor design changes; sheet-metal changes are unlikely.

Spy shots further suggest the Kiger’s alloy wheel size and design may stay the same, but it could get new fog lamps and refreshed bumpers. The upcoming Kiger will also wear Renault’s new diamond logo, as earlier confirmed to us by Francisco Marques, VP of marketing and sales, Renault India.
Renault Kiger facelift interior and safety upgrades
Details about the upgrades to the Kiger interior are unclear at the moment, but like its badge-engineered sibling, the Nissan Magnite, mild tweaks to the dashboard, along with soft-touch materials and new upholstery for the seats and door trims, are anticipated. Like the new Triber, the Kiger may also feature 6 airbags as standard for improved safety.
