French automobile major, Renault has a very interesting history spanning 121 years. Known for their laurels during various motorsports and racing competitions, Renault’s foray into India dates back to 2008, when they set up their 1st ever design studio in Mumbai, under their new entity: Renault India Private Limited.

Renault Kwid, their best-selling entry-level crossover debuted in 2015, and was designed exclusively for Indian roads, and Indian users. Acclaimed Mathematician Gérard Detourbet led a team of engineers in India to design and develop Kwid, which is based on their Renault–Nissan Common Module Family modular architecture.

Renault Kwid is right now one of the best-selling compact hatchbacks, with aggressive pricing and laser-sharp focus on performance.

Key Specifications of Renault Kwid

As the tradition of Renault goes, the primary focus of Renault Kwid is a great design, and an impressive styling quotient packed together with decent specifications for providing a great driving experience. 

Powered with 799 to 999 CC engines, Kwid is available in both automatic and manual transmissions, with the base price of INR 3.12 Lakh, which goes up to INR 5.31 Lakh in New Delhi (Ex-showroom). The company claims a high-end mileage of up to 22.3 kmpl, making it one of the most fuel-efficient cars in this segment, giving a tough fight to the likes of Alto and S-Presso from Maruti.

Renault Kwid Car Review

Once you sit inside Kwid, you cannot help but notice the great attention to detail which Renault engineers have given to the design aspect. Although the car is a small hatchback (3731 mm length and 1579 mm width), you will get a feel of spacious interiors and comfortable seating, thanks to the dual-tone interiors. 

The 999 CC engine gives you a nice head start and acceleration, and maneuvering urban roads and traffic will be actually fun with a steady steering wheel and decent ground clearance. The 799 CC has slightly less power, due to obvious reasons, but the difference is negligible while driving. The smart SUV-type front design is yet another bonus point for this car.

Renault Kwid Car Insurance FAQs

  • 1. I am confused between 3rd party and 1st party insurance. What is the biggest difference?

    The difference is right there in the name itself: In 3rd party insurance, the cover is provided to the 3rd party, that is the external entity during an accident. And 1st party insurance covers you, the driver and the car, during an accident.

  • 2. Ok, so which insurance is mandatory between these two?

    As per Motor Vehicles Act, 3rd party insurance is mandatory for every vehicle on the road. But we will suggest that for a new Renault car, always opt for 1st party or comprehensive insurance as well, since you too need to be covered.

  • 3. I don’t want to pay extra for 3rd party insurance. What are my options?

     Opt for 1st party insurance, also called Comprehensive Insurance. Once you opt for 1st party insurance, the elements and features of 3rd party insurance are automatically embedded into the policy. 

  • 4. There is a minor dent in the backside of my Renault Kwid, which will cost less than INR 2,000 to repair. Should I claim insurance?

    No. We will not advise claiming insurance for small patchworks and repairs, which will cost around INR 2,000. And the reason is that you will miss the benefits of the No Claim Bonus, which is offered only when you don’t make any claim in a policy tenure.

  • 5. What are the biggest benefits of the No Claim Bonus?

    You can get upto 50% discount on your next insurance premium, by not claiming any insurance within the policy tenure, which is also known as No Claim Bonus.

  • 6. My Kwid car met with an accident, while another person was driving the car. Can I claim insurance?

    Yes, of course. Accidents can happen anytime, anywhere, and it’s not necessary that only you will be driving the car during an unfortunate accident. Irrespective of who was driving the car, your insurance claim is 100% valid if your car is insured and the person driving your car has a valid driving license.
