Amazing car

Good cars, Looks so much good and a good runner in the Indian market. I believe it will create the biggest history in terms of a new three-cylinder engine with amazing speed and dashboard looks great.

Nice car

Driving experience is very good with valuable prices fast charging and smooth driving experience suspension is very smooth, and the interior is very nice this car and valuable price compared to other company cars.

Perfect car for an Indian family

Writing this review after driving for 30,000 + km, out of which drove more than 17,000 km on highways, and being able to drive consistently at speeds of 110-120kmph on highways. Never had any problem with the mechanism of the vehicle. From a seating perspective: can easily fit in 2 adults in the last row, if it's children then 3 comfortably. Renault's cost of servicing is a little on the higher side, Overall the experience has been great.
