The all-new Kwid facelift is influenced by Renault City KZ-E electric car that was unveiled in China earlier this year. The hatchback has split headlamp setup just like modern-day SUVs, with the LED daytime running lamps being positioned. There are few cosmetic and design changes in Kwid 2019. At the back, it gets a new rear bumper, which gets reflectors on the sides and new LED elements in the tail-lights.

Talking about the engine, the car offers the same three-cylinder petrol engines – a 54hp, 0.8-litre, and a 68hp, 1.0-litre. The 800cc Kwid has a 5-speed manual only, while the 1.0-litre variant gets an optional 5-speed AMT gearbox.

Priced at Rs 2.83 lakh, the car will come in five variants - Standard, RxE, RxL, RxT and Climber with two petrol engine options. The customers can book the car with Rs 5,000.

Coming on the interiors it has a tweaked dashboard design, with the new 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a new steering wheel. The AMT variants also have around gear lever comes at the centre console instead of the dashboard. It comes with all-new seat fabrics and tweaked door pad trim.
