Even though it is equipped with some basic amenities, it’s still a barebones offering

With the MY22 update, the Kwid’s variant list has been reorganised and the RXL 0.8 is the new entry-level variant. Its prices have hence gone up by Rs 25,000. Does it make sense to go for the Kwid’s new base variant? Read on to find out:

Why consider the Kwid RXL 0.8-litre/1-litre Variants?

The new base-spec RXL trim is equipped with LED DRLs, body-coloured bumpers, manual AC and central locking which make it seem worthy for those on a tight budget. Additional equipment can be included from the accessories list of the hatchback. Only consider if you’re on a strict budget for the car and intend to accessorise it later on.

Here’s a look at its features:

Why skip the Kwid RXL 0.8-litre/1-litre Variants?

Although Renault has equipped these variants with features such as a manual AC, LED DRLs, and a digital instrument cluster, it only makes sense to spend an additional Rs 25,000 for the RXL (O) trim which gets a few more essential features. Also, if you like your car to have factory-fitted features, it’s better to avoid this trim.

Variant

Verdict

RXL

Better to skip this trim and stretch to the RXL (O) variant for better basic features.

RXL (O)

Recommended only for those on a strict budget.

RXT

Being the most value-for-money trim, this is our recommended variant.

Climber

We suggest you consider this variant only if you want the baby-SUV look with an acceptable premium for better looks.
