Common questions
- Which Renault Kiger variant gives you the most equipment for the money?
- The Emotion 1.0 Petrol MT. It costs ₹2,69,000 more than the base Authentic 1.0 Petrol MT, and adds 20 features we value at ₹1,94,120 — the most equipment per rupee of any upgrade on this car — which is a measurement, not a recommendation.
- How many variants does the Renault Kiger have?
- 13 across 4 powertrains (1.0 · Petrol manual, 1.0 · Petrol AMT, 1.0 Turbo · Petrol manual, 1.0 Turbo · Petrol CVT), from ₹5,81,000 to ₹10,40,000 ex-showroom.
- Is it better to buy a lower trim and add accessories afterwards?
- It depends on what you're after. Cosmetic items — alloy wheels, seat covers, infotainment screens — can usually be fitted afterwards. Safety and structural equipment such as additional airbags, ESC, ADAS and a factory sunroof generally cannot be retrofitted, so if you want those they have to come from the factory.
