The Renault KWID has just landed in South Africa and in many instances has elbowed its way to the front of the compact queue.
- Free Insurance (for a year)
First time buyers and those who are on a tight budget, free insurance for a year can provide much needed breathing space when taking on a big investment, such as buying a new car. A conservative insurance premium for around R500/month equates to a R6000 saving for the first 12 months of ownership.
- Ground Clearance and Trendy Crossover Styling
Because Renault KWID is modelled around a compact crossover, the 180mm ground clearance allows inexperienced drivers the freedom to make little mistakes. Whether you’re touching the pavement with a tyre or ramping a speedbump by mistake, parking on the grass at “Uni” or taking a gravel shortcut, KWID takes all of this every day mayhem in its stride, making it a compelling choice for parents or students wanting a robust, attractive and modern vehicle.
- Interior Space
With height adjustable front seats and spacious rear leg and head room, KWID’s crossover roots once again give it an advantage over its competitors. Add to that the 300 litres of available stowage and you’re looking at a class leader
- The Engine
The 999cc 3-cylinder engine pushes out 50kW and, with KWID’s weight being just 700kg, it has one of the best in class power-to-weight ratios. This all adds up to a respectable claimed fuel consumption figure of 4.7 litres/100 km.
- Class-leading in-car Technology
Bluetooth, aircon, USB and modern interior all come standard in the new Renault KWID. Another first in this segment is the 7” Touchscreen MediaNav Multimedia system. Electric power steering, digital dashboard and electric front windows round off a spec list that wouldn’t be out of place a few segments up.
Modern and wearing a badge that has earned a reputation for innovative technology without attaching the lofty price tag, the Renault KWID is on sale at Group 1 Renault in Expression and Dynamique specification.
