The facelifted Renault Kiger was recently introduced in our market, four years after the launch of the sub-4m SUV in 2021. With the refresh, the Kiger has gotten a few nips and tucks inside and out, and is now available in a revised variant lineup too: Authentic, Evolution, Techno and Emotion. The updated SUV has now reached some dealerships across the country, and deliveries have begun as well. We have now got our hands on some images of the new Kiger at a dealership, so let’s check it out:
What Can Be Seen?
As seen in the image, the model snapped is finished in the new dual-tone Oasis Yellow with Mystery Black roof paint shade. Given the presence of 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, chrome strip on the tailgate, red brake callipers (exclusive to turbo variants), and silver-finished front and rear skid plates, it can be made out that it is the top-spec Emotion variant of the new Kiger.
Renault also offers the 2025 Kiger’s Emotion variant with auto-LED projector headlights and functional roof rails (finished in black), which have a load-carrying capacity of up to 50 kgs. That said, the refreshed SUV comes with LED DRLs, LED tail lights, and a rear spoiler right from its base-spec Authentic variant.
Cabin And Features
Another set of factors that confirms it’s the fully loaded Emotion is due to the provision of cruise control (only with MT variants) toggle near the AC controls, and also the multi-drive mode rotator next to the gear shifter on the centre console. The Kiger’s Emotion variant also has leatherette upholstery, a leatherette-wrapped steering wheel, a cooled lower glovebox and ambient lighting.
Being the top-spec trim, the Emotion variant is fully kitted out with a 7-inch full-digital driver’s display, ventilated front seats, wireless phone charger, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment unit, and a 6-speaker Arkamys-tuned audio system. In terms of safety, the Kiger Emotion is loaded with six airbags (which are available as standard), a rear defogger, a 360-degree camera, a rear wiper with washer, and ISOFIX child seat anchorages.
