Renault has priced the Kiger from Rs 5.45 lakh onwards, making it the most affordable model in the segment, but only by a small margin (Rs 4,000 less than entry-level Nissan Magnite).
-
Most variants of the Kiger are quite closely matched with the Magnite.
-
Nissan also offers the optional Tech Pack from the Magnite XV onwards which is a package of features such as wireless charging, air purifier and JBL sound system. The premium is the same across all variants at Rs 38,698.
-
The top-spec Kiger with the naturally-aspirated (N.A.) engine is more affordable than the low-spec variants of the Hyundai Venue and Kia Sonet. In fact, it is only slightly more expensive than the base-spec Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and Tata Nexon. Meanwhile, the entry-level pricing for the Mahindra XUV300, Ford EcoSport and Toyota Urban Cruiser is even higher, around the Rs 8 lakh mark.
-
Renault’s sub-4m SUV comes with the choice of N.A. and turbocharged petrol engines, just like the Magnite, Venue and Sonet. The Nexon and XUV300 get only a turbo-petrol unit while the Brezza and EcoSport are powered by 1.5-litre engines.
-
Hyundai and Kia are the only ones to offer an iMT(clutchless manual) with their turbo-petrol engines. But only the Venue gets the option of a 6-speed manual with the same engine.
-
The Sonet’s top-spec petrol-manual option is close to Rs 12 lakh making it the most expensive model here by a large margin.

The Kiger is the most affordable petrol-automatic option in the segment thanks to the 1.0-litre N.A. engine getting the choice of an AMT. Even the Magnite does not offer that powertrain option.
-
The next AMT option in this segment is the Nexon XMA which costs nearly Rs 2 lakh more than the Kiger RXL AMT.
-
Nissan continues to offer the most affordable CVT automatic option in the segment. The Magnite Turbo XL CVT is cheaper than the Kiger’s entry-level turbo CVT option, the RXT CVT, by Rs 70,000.
-
Mahindra only recently joined this list with the addition of the XUV300 petrol-AMT.
-
Hyundai Venue and Kia Sonet offer the choice of a 7-speed dual-clutch (DCT) automatic with their turbo-petrol engines. But the entry pricing of the Venue DCT is a lot more affordable than the entry-level Sonet DCT.
-
The Vitara Brezza and EcoSport get torque convertors as the automatic transmission option for the petrol engine. Maruti adds the benefit of mild-hybrid tech with the Brezza’s petrol-AT powertrain for improved fuel efficiency.
