Renault has launched the 2022 model year Kiger, priced from Rs 5.84 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The MY22 subcompact SUV gets minor cosmetic upgrades, a new colour option, and more features. You can now opt for the turbo-petrol engine with the second-to-top RXT (O) variant, which was earlier available with the naturally aspirated engine only.
The exterior changes are limited to the turbo-petrol variants. It gets a front faux skid plate, ‘Turbo’ door decals, red wheel caps for the alloy wheels, and a sleek chrome strip insert for the tailgate (the chrome strip and faux skid plate earlier were part of the official accessory). There’s also a new Metal Mustard (with a black roof) colour option.
The 2022 Kiger Turbo’s cabin now gets red inserts over the dashboard and red stitching for the new quilted seat upholstery. Feature additions include cruise control (new), wireless charger, and a PM 2.5 air filter. The latter two features were available with the accessory pack but now come factory-fitted.
It continues with its existing features such as LED headlights, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, auto climate control, a 7-inch digital driver’s display, up to four airbags, and a rear parking camera.
There are no mechanical changes onboard. The 2022 Renault Kiger continues with its 72PS 1-litre naturally aspirated and 100PS 1-litre turbo-petrol engines. While both get a 5-speed manual transmission as standard, you can also opt for 5-speed AMT (1-litre N.A) and CVT (1-litre turbo).
