Renault Kwid [2015-2019] User Reviews

Actually I wanted a petrol car with my budget under 5 lakh. So as usual I have gone for maruti Suzuki showroom as a routine buyer. But in those days, due to year end, each model I wanted was out of stock as I have been told. So I went tata show room and asked for tiago. Same story there and waiting also for at least 30 days.

So we were going towards Hyundai for eon. But one of my friends told me to try for renault kwid. When I gone for test drive, I was pleased with driving, space and especially look from outside. I have cancelled my token money given for maruti showroom friend for any wagon r or alto k10. And purchased kwid. After possesing the car, I came to know about it's user friendly nature. Each and every thing is well designed inside as compared to cost.

Don't expect features of 7/8 lakh rs car features. Best thing is that it comes with inbuilt audio system with navigator. Which comes mostly in mpv or suv class. It has good space inside. Driver plus four passangers can travel comfortably than wagon r or alto or eon. I am a civil engineer. I have to go frequently to sites, where access roads are not built. Or by driving of sand trucks and other heavy vehicles, there is risk of car gets scratched from bottom side. But kwid has 180 mm ground clearance.

So my car goes better on such roads. Also for petrol engine, it gives me average of 22 kmpl. I have driven it for 30000 km in 16 months. Not any single major maintainace, Though I have travelled on rough roads. It has highest luggage space in its class. It's a very good product under 5 lakh budget and if you live in semi urban area. As compared to Suzuki alto and wagon r or Hyundai eon, it's perfect choice. Thanks Renault for such wonderful product.

1st car in my life and I realised I choosen wrong one. Exterior look is really good and also fuel economy. But the car have many negative points. First one “pickup”, the worst thing of the car and second is very bad suspicion u will get lot of noise wen u cross speed brakers and bad Indian roads. And heavy noise from infine.

I was looking for a low maintainance and a budget car. Searched for Kwid and seen lots of low rated ratings. But I haven’t found such with my kwid climber. On weekends I drive to out of stations from bangalore. Had best experience with Coorg, mysore and pondicherry drive. Gives 20kmpl on highways and 14kmpl on roads. I have bought kwid climber automatic. Would like to say drawbacks aswell, lock indicator is provided only for driver window, single light on reverse and driver seat is not adjustable. This car is best for couples. On driving with 4, speed breakers are problems.

Very weak pulling power. I got both Maruti Alto 800 and Kwid 1000 cc but compared to Kwid1000, Alto 800 is more powerful.The worst part of Renault Co. is its servicing. I purchased this car at SILIGURI in October, 2016and had my 1st servicing but now there is no service centre in SILIGURI(WB). When asked, they suggested to visit Purnia(Bihar).How can the company be so careless and irresponsible. I suggest the people to think twice before buying this car.

The best part about this hatch is that it is equipped with almost all the essential features, besides having a performance packed engine under its hood. Among the several versions available to pick from, Renault KWID RXT Driver Airbag Option  is the top spec variant. It is especially appealing from the outside, as the designers have done a distinct job on it.

The body toned bumpers, macho looking front grille, C-shaped headlamps and steel wheels with multi-spoke covers all combine together to make its overall appearance very fashionable. It is equally impressive from its inside too, thanks to the 2-tone dashboard, enriched with chrome accents.

Safety wise, there is an engine immobilizer along with driver airbag, front and rear seatbelts and central locking with keyless entry. A lot of storage capacity is offered by embedding cup and bottle holders, two glove boxes and a rear parcel tray inside. The entertainment factor is addressed with a music system that can support a USB and Aux-In ports along with Bluetooth music streaming and handsfree mobile paring.

Apart from this, the elements such as an air-conditioner with four blowers and 5-position air-vents are present. The convenience of its driver is further supported by features like electric power steering, front power windows, remote fuel plus boot release and many more. The generous wheelbase provides a large space in the cabin to take-in five occupants with ease.

And the ground clearance is good enough to tackle the uneven roads of India. All in all, this variant is an ideal option for those with low budget.

Navigation, ground clearance,ABS, No airbags for co passenger

My worst mistake in my life to purchase a car from Renault India there is no such thing named after sales service in their manual. Now the only service center in siliguri is permanently closed. My one yr old car is of scrap value presently. The car developed technical problem on 07/09/18 and they are advising me to take the car to purnia district of bihar!!!!!!. which is about 200 km from jalpaiguri. so please do not glorify Renault India in your portal . that will help them to cheat more and more Indian people (unless of course you people are obliged to renault india some way or other)

As the car was new in the market and the outer design was quite impressive I got this car in sept 2016, I won't say I was disapointed but say bit unhappy with its performance. It has some sound from the first day of the car, also tell you that the first I took the car and drove to my home (150Km) and I was surprised that the brakes was not working properly.

Best way to say that the service was not good in REnault. Infact I changed the service centre then also same problem. Last my car net with an accident and when I got with following problem.

1. On 9:30AM I reached the service centre and at 1:30PM I got my car for the first test drive, all the time spend was to clean the car and that too not able to cleaned properly which I showed to service manager.

2. After the test drive I found that car is bubbling, which is because of the tyre. They suggested me to change all 4 tyres.

3. Also when I drive I told them that the brake is not working but no action was taken.

4. I suggested them to fill water in windshield bottle as it was dry. They only fill water and no shampoo.

5. After leaving the place I found that windshield wiper is not working.

6. On almost whole body of the car specially on front shield, the surface was rough, As if while painting some paint is sprayed on the car.

7. Head light was not aligned properly because of this my car was out of the road thrice. Wind shield is getting scratch, Road is not visible, brakes are not working all are major issues. At last I want to know that because of yours insufficient service if any misshapen will occurred who will be responsible. I have complain these thing to them personally, via phone and through email but till date they have not taken any action. This is RENAULT Service and Maintenance.

I purchased 1 litre Kwid last December which claims 23km/litre but I was quiet disappointed that it was giving only 14-15 km / litre. This was the feature that attracted me first. Driving is smooth. Interior with digital panel is quite attractive. I am loving the features. Now I can talk over the phone without lifting my mobile.

Buying experience: - Extremely Delayed Riding experience - Average Details about looks, performance etc: - Looks are good and performance is bad Servicing and maintenance: - Not trustworthy Pros and Cons: Only looks are pro. Rest everything is terrible All five have been felt terrible. Only first time car buyers can miss the design defects of the vehicle. I can show at least 15 design defects which still might have not been rectified. Terrible service centers with zero knowledge technicians and service managers. Sent my vehicle for rectifying the defects for at least 5 times but no change in the vehicle. Terrible feature is the water stagnating inside the head lamp assembly and on the roof of the car. Extremely lethargic response from the accelerator. No brake holding mechanism in the car which is the most common feature in the all automatic cars. On a highway you hardly get a mileage of 16-17 KMPL at average speed of 80-90 KMPH, which much less than the quoted 24.5 KMPL. Overall most not trustworthy automobile company since no transparency in the customer complaint system. they can manipulate anything that they want in the complaint system since the customer does not have access to the system to track his complaint.
