LIMITED EDITION RENAULT KWID LAUNCHED IN SOUTH AFRICA



The Renault Kwid is now also available in a Limited Edition, the Kwid Xtreme, which boasts enhanced design by means of an exterior styling pack.
There are chrome exterior accents which include an insert for the front grille, fog lamp surrounds, front bumper garnish and a tailgate strip.
Apart from being aesthetically pleasing, the distinctive detailed bumper protectors are designed to protect the corners of the bumpers against scuffs and scrapes.
The SUV look is enhanced by black rails fitted on the roof and a set of black plastic mud flaps added to protect the body of the Kwid Xtreme against mud and water.
It is further distinguished by 14" rims and tyres plus funky bespoke decals.
The standard Kwid technology such as air conditioning, electric front windows and on-board navigation, is complemented by rear parking distance control to guide the driver into even the tightest of parking spots. Peace of mind is added by a Lock-On Drive system which automatically locks the doors at 20km, for added security.
The Kwid features bold exterior styling, with a high ground clearance of 180mm, that offers a high driving position and greater visibility, making it ideal for zipping around in urban traffic or cruising down the open highway. Its longer wheelbase, at 2 422mm, allows for a spacious cabin plus greater rear legroom. Boot space is a handy 300 litres.
At first glance, the boldly structured front grille design highlights Renault's diamond-shaped logo, while the vehicle's C-shaped headlights incorporate the brand's new lighting signature.
The Kwid's subtly sculpted sides provide a fluid, dynamic touch. The rectangular form of the black cladded and flared wheel arches is another pointer to its SUV breeding while also offering additional protection.
While the lower door decor underlines the Kwid's robust character, the forward-positioned windscreen and large windows ensure good visibility for the driver and play a big part in travelling comfort, while the sharp creases on the bonnet give it a muscular look.
At the rear, the lower part of the bumper comes with a black trim and the body-coloured tailgate spoiler adds to the car's dynamic stance.
The interior of the Kwid offers style and practicality, featuring intuitive technology to ensure that driver and passengers stay connected. This includes a MediaNav navigation and multi-media system complete with large 7" touch screen display, radio and Bluetooth connectivity housed in an attractive piano black centre console with chrome finishing.
The height-adjustable front seats are generously sized, offering superior comfort, while the electric power steering and one-touch lane change indicator make driving a breeze.
Electric front windows add to driver and front passenger convenience while the powerful air-conditioning with heater functionality ensures driving pleasure irrespective of the weather.
An open storage space faces the front passenger, with lower glove box plus upper glove box space. Both the driver and passenger have in-door storage space with a 1-litre bottle holder and rear parcel tray for practical and convenient stowage.
The Kwid model range is powered by a new 1,0 litre Smart Control efficiency (SCe) engine mated to a five speed manual gearbox that ensures smooth driving.
