| |Hail the Climber

As one of the sales climbers in the small hatch market – 11 000 units since launch in late 2016 – it is perhaps fitting the brand is launching a limited edition called Climber.

The Renault Kwid Climber is based on the Dynamique trim, enhanced by means of an exterior styling pack, in either Electric Blue or Planet Grey.

The two-tone exterior is further enhanced with the Kwid Climber insignia, distinctive protection cladding on the doors and bumper over-riders. Apart from being aesthetically pleasing, the bumper protectors are designed to protect the bumpers’ corners from scuffs and scrapes.

For a true SUV look, arching rails sporting orange accents have been fitted on the roof, which together with the muscular style wheels give the new Kwid a robust, sportier appeal.

The Renault Kwid Climber has a piano black centre fascia with orange contours and the bespoke Climber insignia on the headrests of the two-tone seats. The vibrant orange accents extend to the door trims, side air vents, the two-tone gear knob and sporty steering wheel with unique orange perforations.

The Kwid Climber boasts advanced technology – including standard air-conditioning, power front windows and onboard navigation.

Connectivity includes a MediaNav navigation/multi-media system complete with large 18 cm touchscreen display, radio and Bluetooth.

The height adjustable front seats are generously sized offering superior comfort while the electric power steering and one-touch lane change indicator make driving a breeze.

The Kwid Climber is exclusively available with a manual gearbox and the compact 1,0-litre 3-cylinder Smart Control efficiency (SCe) engine powering the Kwid models has been optimised for power and performance and pushes out peak power of 50 kW at 5 500 r/min and maximum torque of 91 Nm at 4 250 r/min.

As is standard across Renault’s entire product range, the Renault Kwid model range comes standard with a 5-year/150 000 km mechanical warranty and a 6-year anti-corrosion warranty. Services take place at 15 000 km intervals. Optional service plans are available.
