Renault India has expanded the variant portfolio of its Kiger compact SUV, introducing new trims and feature upgrades aimed at making turbocharged performance and premium features more accessible to customers in the highly competitive entry B-SUV segment.
The move comes as the automaker seeks to strengthen Kiger’s value proposition amid evolving customer expectations and intensifying competition in the segment.
New Evolution variant introduced
As part of the updated line-up, Renault has launched the new Evolution variant across Naturally Aspirated (manual and AMT) and Turbo (manual) powertrains.
The new variant brings a range of premium features to more accessible price points, including Smart Access Card with Push Start/Stop, Automatic Climate Control, Wireless Smartphone Replication, Driver Seat Height Adjustment and light embossed fabric upholstery.
Renault said the new variant is aimed at offering greater convenience and comfort while widening access to features that were previously available in higher trims.
Kiger becomes most accessible turbo SUV
With the latest update, Renault Kiger has become the most accessible turbo-powered SUV in the entry B-SUV segment, with prices starting at ₹7.89 lakh (ex-showroom).
The newly introduced Evolution+ variant starts at ₹6.99 lakh (ex-showroom), further expanding the vehicle’s appeal among value-conscious buyers looking for a feature-rich SUV.
The company said the expanded range creates a smoother progression across variants while improving overall value and accessibility for customers.
Wider access to turbo performance
Renault India has expanded its Turbo portfolio from three variants to five variants in response to growing demand for performance-oriented SUVs.
The Techno variant with the turbocharged engine is now available with a five-speed manual transmission, providing customers with an additional option that combines performance, features and affordability.
The Naturally Aspirated range has also been expanded from six to eight variants, offering customers a broader selection across different price points and feature combinations.
Focus on accessibility and ownership experience
According to Renault, accessibility today extends beyond pricing and increasingly includes access to technology, convenience features and an enhanced ownership experience.
Renault India VP, Sales and Marketing, Francisco Hidalgo said, “At Renault, our focus has always been on making innovation and mobility more accessible to customers. With the New Kiger range, we are taking this commitment further by bringing turbo performance, premium features, and greater choice within easier reach.”
He added, “As customer expectations continue to evolve, accessibility today goes beyond price, it is about enabling a more complete and rewarding ownership experience. This update reflects our effort to democratise features and technologies that matter most, while staying true to Kiger’s core promise of performance.”
Strengthening position in the B-SUV segment
The Renault Kiger continues to compete in one of India’s fastest-growing passenger vehicle categories, where customers increasingly seek a combination of styling, technology, performance and value.
With its bold SUV design, spacious cabin and expanded feature list, the updated Kiger is positioned to appeal to a wider customer base, ranging from first-time SUV buyers to those seeking turbocharged performance at an affordable price point.
Driving value through a broader portfolio
The expanded Kiger range reflects Renault India’s strategy of offering greater choice across powertrains and variants while improving feature accessibility.
By making turbo performance available at a lower entry price and introducing premium features in more affordable variants, the company is seeking to strengthen Kiger’s competitiveness and reinforce its positioning as a value-driven and feature-rich offering in the entry B-SUV market.
