When It Was Presented To The Public, The Renault Kwid Attracted Attention And Was Well Received, But It Has Been Forgotten Over Time.

However, If It Receives More Than Just Inspiration From Its Cousin, It Is Possible That It Will Be Equipped With A 33 kW Motor, Which Means A Power Of 45 Horsepower And A Torque Of 12.6 Kgfm.
