Renault Introduces RXL Variant Of Kwid 1.0-Litre And AMT

Recently, the Kwid surpassed the 1.30 lakh unit sales milestone and the company also registered an impressive growth of 146 per cent in 2016. To further boost the sales of the Kwid Renault introduces new variant “RXL” with 1.0-litre engine in both manual and AMT options. 1.0-litre kwid was earlier available only in the top-end RXT and RXT Opt variants. . With this variant, the 1.0-litre and the AMT variants have become more affordable and will be accessible.
The RXL 1.0L SCe variant in manual transmission is Rs 22,000 more than the 800cc Kwid, whereas RXL 1.0L AMT variant is just Rs 30,000 more than the former manual 1.0-litre version. To keep the prices low, the RXL variant leaves out a lot of features. Instead of the 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system which is present in the RXT variant. The RXL variant has a single-DIN audio player with USB, Bluetooth and AUX inputs. The RXL also lacks many features like front power windows, fog lamps, on-board computer and a remote locking, which are available on the top-spec variant.
The 1.0-litre Renault Kwid is powered by a three-cylinder 1.0-litre petrol engine. It comes mated to a five-speed manual transmission or an AMT gearbox. This motor produces 68bhp of power and 91Nm of torque, considerably more than the 800’s 54bhp, 72Nm output. RXL 1.0L SCe variant in manual transmission will cost Rs 3.54 lakh and RXL 1.0L AMT variant will cost Rs 3.84 lakh (Ex-Showroom, Delhi).
