French carmaker Renault on Monday said it has launched a new version of its entry-level model Kwid with the price starting at Rs 4.49 lakh (ex-showroom).

Available in both 0.8-litre and 1-liter petrol powertrains with manual and automatic transmission options, the updated Kwid features new interior and exterior color harmony with white accents in the Climber range.

The KWID MY22 Climber range will also offer customers an array of new color options along with new dual-tone flex wheels.

The value proposition of the model is further enhanced with the introduction of the new RXL(O) variant on both 0.8-litre and 1-litre manual transmission powertrains, the carmaker said in a statement.

The model is compliant with all the current safety requirements for the Indian market and even goes beyond to protect both passengers and pedestrians, it added.

It includes several active and passive safety features like dual front airbags, ABS (anti-braking system) and EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution), and seat belt reminder, Renault said.

In terms of fuel efficiency, the Kwid 0.8-litre offers 22.25 km per liter as per the ARAI Testing Certification, it added.
