Renault has used the same instrument cluster from the more expensive and international Captur for the Kiger! Nice move IMO looks stylish.

International Captur.

Odd placement, but why?[/indent]

The video posted by our fellow member has the guy explaining at 2:37 that it a switch for a light where you would place your mobile.

Looks awesome in Silver and definitely not like a Kwid.
I am still a fan of analogue instrument cluster or even if digital it still has to round and not like a two hand gesture making a heart shapte that I see on social media.

The rear tail lamp is awesome but I am worried about its upkeep since I see a lot of tailamps having nicks and other damages when they protrude out so much.

Slightly OT: People who always relate one car to the other after seeing even few similarities probably also have a hard time picking from leafy vegetables or fish (or people of some nationalities). They all look the same!

More pictures of Planet grey, Mahogany brown, and Caspian blue.

Imagine a Diesel in this with a 6 speed Manual or the best of best a 6 speed Torque Converter with the Diesel

This can give a lot of hatchbacks and sub 4 mete cars a run for their money. An innovative thinking PM here can get a lot of numbers to Renault. I will pay 9 to 10 lakhs on road for a Diesel Kiger with a 6 speed manual or a 6 speed torque converted Auto.

Does the Renault Kiger have a sunroof?

Nope.

Otherwise that would have been painted in BOLD font everywhere.

IMO looks more like a concept car. The alloys look like they have been borrowed from a space rover. I am not a fan of the design. The rear bumper lights don't make it look good either.

Might be a nitpick, but that single wiper fluid nozzle on top of the hood looks pretty bad; a visible sign of cost-cutting in an otherwise handsome-looking car. The least they could've done is to conceal it like in almost all modern cars, if they wanted to skimp out on providing two nozzles.

Renault Kiger will be available in 6 different colours.
Source: Renault

Radiant Red colour (only available on the top-spec RXZ variant)

Renault Kiger Crossover launched at Rs. 5.45 lakh. EDIT: Driving report on page 19-radiant-red-colour.jpg

Caspian Blue colour

Ice Cool White colour

Moonlight Grey colour

Planet Grey colour

Mahogany Brown colour

The car is expected to be launched in three variants: RXZ, RXT and RXL

Noticeable differences between the RXZ and the RXL variant
1. Halogen headlamps instead of LED
2. Loses the functional roof rails
3. Misses out on the rear wash wiper
4. Lack of alloys is apparent
5. Retains LED setup in the DRL's

Renault Kiger Crossover launched at Rs. 5.45 lakh. EDIT: Driving report on page 19-rxz-rxl.jpg

Instrument Cluster comparison between the RXZ and the RXT variant:
While the RXZ variant gets a 7-inch setup, the RXT variant gets a 3.5-inch MID similar to the Triber

Wheel Alloy Designs for the RXZ, RXT and RXL variant
1. The RXZ variant gets diamond-cut alloys
2. RXT variant also gets alloy wheels, but in a different 5 spoke design
3. RXL variant gets steel wheels, with plastic covers

Renault Kiger RXL variant spotted. Look very hatchback-ish in my opinion.

Agree - somehow the ground clearance is not apparent , maybe they used a different method for measurements? Actually the pics scream modernised Baleno to me .

Prefer the Magnite.

A friend visited the renault showroom at his native place to checkout the Kigar today morning. There was only Turbo manual variant available on display. No AMT/ CVT options yet.

He felt feature wise Kigar has less features than Kia Sonet!

He was also informed by the showroom people that the car will be officially launched on 19 Feb 2021 with the list of variants and features.

He felt that the (O) variants will come with lot many features as Magnite has some of them like cruise control, TPMS etc
