Renault Kwid [2015-2019] User Reviews

Exterior Stunning, looks like mini SUV . but Windsheild is BAD.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) POOR,  even EXT version has low quality uphaustory and SEAT. not as per Industry Standard. Poor music system. Stupid navigator, no Speakers for Rear passengers. Reat seat belt is a safty issue for kids. idash board estorage is not good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 1.0 AMT verson not having power and pickup. 2nd gear change is lagging, its really bad experience when overtaking the trafic.

Ride Quality & Handling Steering is Good and smooth, good visiblility. They say AMT is high standard. My experience its poor quality dont have Parkning Gear..? Gear is controled Electronicaly which is very dangerous when there is battery issue in car.

Final Words EXT -1.0 AMT  is not woth for money. .. may be Buyng and RXE and improve the interior and fittings caould have more worth for money.

Areas of improvement  

1) AMT need Mechanical Gear Liever Not Elctronic Knob.

2) AMT  need Parking Gear.

3) arleast EXE  version needs attractive interior and good Music system.

4) VERY POOR NAVIGATION.

5) SEAT needs to be safety specified.

6) atleast RXE should have electric mirror adjustment.

7) important information like tyre pressure weight cacity info should displyed as per industry standard.

I Hemant. Behere Had purchace Your Renault Kwid Live For more edition Kwid RXT 1.0 SCe Easy R on my wife’s name Shraddha. Behere on 24th of april from Dombivli Gen-next motors dealer of Renault. Following are the problems faced in cars which might be common for you.

1) The first visit I did on 5th of April 2017 for the Ac problem where it was solve than and there.

2) The second time I visited on15th May 2017 where in I informed about fuel consumption it was unresolved and said average once you drive more it will increase.

3) The third visit was on 29th May 2017 where in they came to know there was issue where in a part by name  canister evapo was faulty due due that there was vacuum created in fuel tank so the fuel tank was also replaced along with flexible reserve packing and clip.

4) The fourth time I visited on 1st August 2017 for the problem I was facing for the fuel indicator where in I use to fill the tank full but the fuel indicator  in proper and I came to know i need to move the car while filling the fuel.

5) The fifth Time I visited on 14th September 2017 where in there was problem in Battery and it was change.

6) The sixth time i visited on 19th Jan 2018 where in your cont- Gearbox and Sen Accel Pedal was change.

7) The seventh time I visited on 2nd Feb 2018 where in we had taken trial and after diagnosed came to know there is problem in one motor which has to replace as my wife's birthday was there on 3rd feb 2018 I was in need of car so i decided to give it on Monday thats on 5th Feb 2018. 8) today I revisited the service center where in they said they  cannot say how much time will it take to repair my car. This is really frustrating when I asked them they are not ready to give any contact detail to whom i can speak and can get solution whenever i had given my car in service center I had filled the petrol but when it is delivered its in reserve they say they need to take trials why I need to spend every where, now I feel they had removed or had changed my genuine parts from my car.

Please find the attachment for the same I believe this is enough to understand that i had done mistake by purchasing Renault Kwid. They said they don't replace the car neither they give in writing so for the public awareness I want to warn the citizens that they should think before buying this car and want to make them aware these might be big scam. I also requested them to give renault owner contact no as the managers are helpless and say what ever you want to take action you can take it they never think about brand they might be use to to it and pressure customer to surrender in front of them they behave as if they are doing favor on me and they forget they are in service department sales people say they don't have any concern once sold they do not take care. they say to drop my car at their service center to do check all the problem but now I am really scared to hand over my car and its really frustrating.

Nothing to sayEntire car

Exterior Looks like a mini SUV. Externally adjusted mirrors even in top model is bad. Rear plastic bumper below dickey lead looks poor. Dirrerant colour mirrors do not look good at all. Overall though it have aggresive exteriror design, there is much room for improvement.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) My one came exactly as shown in the pictures on this site. Plastic dashboard looks okay. Door plastic looks poor. Have lots of places to for storage. Dual glove box is nice idea. Rotary driving mode change dial is user friendly. Seats are reasonably comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Let me elaborate in details:

I have read a review about problems in AMT gearbox on a so called 'reputed' auto review site. The review said that the gearbox is cannot be trusted while overtaking as it can auto shift to higher gear as speed increase and reduce the speed of overtaking. This may put you in trouble. My experience is somewhat different. The road I tested my new KWID RXT AMT 1.0 is from Ratnagiri to Pune via Chiplun, Mangaon, Tamhini ghat and back on the same route. It is about 650 kms in total to and fro. Both to and fro trips were at night. Means I have started from my source at 9.0 PM both times. It took exactly same time as Google have suggested i.e 6 hours and 40 minutes for each trip. While driving in the ghat I was skeptical and influenced by the review I read but soon I found that there is simple trick. While overtaking when I put full throttle, it used to pass vehicle fluently that I intend to overtake. I have never experienced lack of power in motion. The power did cut only when I apply brakes and tried to crank engine again. That time, the response time is bit slow. Headlights are superb and fog lamps sufficiently illuminate sides of road. I could avoid a cute road crossing porcupine (and possible bursting my tire) because of powerful lights. The engine supplied enough power to keep me running fluently in all the ghats on my way. If you are new to the route I took, just look at the terrine using Google maps satellite view. Tyres of the vehicle are bit slim. As a caution I will keep my speed low on curves on rainy days because of slim tyres.

In city I have drove it in senseless traffic at Pune and low traffic at Ratnagiri both. Driving was a pleasure. I am too happy about the size of the car that did adjust in even cramped parking places. For me this car is comfortable in cities and equally on highways to drive.

Gear shifting is not as smooth as I have read. Lower gears did gave a slight jerk while shifting. Downshifting was smooth and could not be recognized. There is no indication on panel about the current gear and I never needed it too. electronic panel have irritating orange coloured digits and I would be much happy if they were light white. Speedometer digits are way too bigger than needed and lower indications are way too smaller than needed. I expect Renault to change sizes of those digits and symbols in their next upgrade.

Air conditioner worked good even in sunny days of April end. At night I had to increase the temperature by adjusting the temperature knob. Overall I am happy bout this car and expect to keep the car for next 5 years.  

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is sufficiently good to use this car for at least next 5 years for me. Seats are reasonably comfortable. There are no speed sensing door locks as said on the site.

Final Words Overall I am happy about my choice to select this car after comparing many others using carwale.

Areas of improvement Mirrors, interior plastic, speakers.

Buying experience was ok. The dealer charges me extra 12 thousand more than the initial booking amount. Riding experience is good. Very good handling but low back visibility. Performance is ok. Knocking on initial gears. AMT response quite slow. servicing very bad. maintenance is cheap pro. Good comfort cons. Lots of creaking noise inside the care while driving.

This is as complete as I wish regarding looks, style, facilities, comfort, character, milage, efficiency. The facilities given in kwid is just like dream come true in best price. Features in this car is as better as any other cars company. Look wise it is too good, I realy look its design provided by company.

It is a great city riding car , steering is vert light helps in city traffic , parking etc . The touch screen infotainment system is a great plus point in a car in this segment. A comfort city riding ??. But the AMT lags a little bit in gear changing. The overall highway performance is not too great. The AMT should have been more good . But as the price range,looks, interior it is great value for money . #kwid

Riding is so clean and staring is so lite and nice grip But it has is con. That is oil chamber is made of plastic. Looks of kwid like a suv. But lights and normal halogen lamp so I think go for updated for led lamp for front looks saw batter and make a perfect car in this segment. And solve the oil chamber which is made of plastic

Wonderful in each and every aspect. As heard about it is much more than that.i am driving everyday and when I drive I get osum feeling which I cannot Express in words.my day to day outdoor work I enjoy in the company of my kwid especially its booting space helps me to carry heavy household things for repairing whenever the need arises.very comfortable and affordable it is.

This is a budget car for Indian people. Car design in very good
