2021 Renault Kwid: what’s new?

The biggest update on the 2021 Kwid is that Renault has introduced dual airbags as standard across all variants of the Kwid. Until now, base variants of the Kwid were only available with a driver side airbag. It has also been updated with front driver side pyrotech and pretensioner. This now makes the Kwid compliant with current and upcoming safety regulations in India.

Additionally, the Kwid Climber Edition now gets a new dual-tone paint option in white with a contrasting black roof. It has also been updated with features like electric ORVMs and day and night IRVMs. 

Mechanically, the Kwid continues with the 54hp, 0.8-litre engine and the larger 68hp, 1.0-litre petrol unit. Both engines are offered with a 5-speed manual gearbox, though the larger 1.0-litre unit is also offered with an AMT option.
