A decade after its local debut, the popular Renault Kwid has been given a 10th Anniversary Edition cosmetic upgrade, limited to 300 units.
Positioned as an entry-level urban hatch, the Kwid has established itself as a consistent volume player in Renault’s local line-up with 72,000 units having found a home since its introduction.
The Anniversary Edition introduces a number of visual changes aimed at setting it apart from the standard range.
A dual-tone finish with a contrasting black roof is paired with orange accent detailing across the body. Black flex wheels feature a unique design, while piano black finishes extend to the side mirrors.
The overall silhouette remains unchanged, retaining the Kwid’s crossover-inspired stance with raised ground clearance.
The steering wheel is finished in leather with orange stitching, while the seats receive special upholstery with anniversary signature.
