As an innovator since 1898, Renault has constantly sought to pioneer new ideas, question convention­al thinking and reinvent the way we use cars.

THE Renault KWID combines the comfort and functional user-friendline­ss of a family city car with a modular interior and a raft of stowage solutions. Renault has long showcased its ability to develop unique, innovative vehicles designed to meet the specific needs of its internatio­nal markets.

The KWID overturns establishe­d A-segment design cues thanks to a robust, stylish exterior plus a modern, welcoming interior equipped with features normally associated with models from the next segment.

This eminently modern newcomer features SUV styling and constructi­on, combining generous cabin space with unpreceden­ted features for its segment, while its compact footprint makes it particular­ly versatile.

“With KWID, Renault continues to pursue its strategy of accessible mobility for all to step up its internatio­nal growth. Using a new RenaultNis­san Alliance platform and following the trail blazed by the Duster, the KWID will enable Renault to continue its expansion and address the needs of customers who want a vehicle that is stylish, robust and easy to use,” said chairman of Groupe Renault Carlos Ghosn.

Quality interior appointmen­ts of the vehicle include a modern Media-navigation/multimedia system complete with large seven-inch touchscree­n display and Bluetooth connectivi­ty.

With the introducti­on of the KWID, the brand has gone a step further down the road of designing attractive, affordable vehicles in the smallcar segment.

KWID was launched in Zimbabwe in 2017 and it has continued to surprise all customers that are wishing for a small crossover with great fuel efficiency.

The combinatio­n of KWID’s great looks, features more readily associated with higher-end models, a dynamic stance and SUV lines adapted to its compact size make it a unique offering in compact city car segment.

The KWID is an attractive, modern car, with a spacious, comfortabl­e interior that meets the everyday needs of families. The Renault KWID illustrate­s the “Explore” petal of Renault’s design strategy, a symbol that stands for dynamic performanc­e, robust strength and a taste for adventure.

“At first glance, the KWID blends an emotional design with the need for reassuranc­e expressed by customers. Its SUV lines mirror its tough, robust character and underpin its distinctiv­e, modern look,“said senior vice president, Corporate Design Laurens van den Acker.

Renault Design Department selected a two-colored interior trim that reflects inside the same bold, modern spirit of the exterior design.

Available with KWID are features and equipment that are normally associated with higher-end segments.

The piano-black centre console comes with a chrome-surround and houses the Media-Nav multimedia/navigation system which comes with a seven-inch (18 cm) display, an unpreceden­ted size for the segment.

The KWID’s connected interior includes technologi­es that not only meet drivers’ needs but also make driving simpler.

The user-friendly Media-Nav system includes the radio and Bluetooth technology for handsfree telephony which contribute­s to safer driving.

These features correspond to the needs of customers who are looking for status and connected technologi­es.

The vehicle is available at Duly Holdings Limited and Croco Motors.
