French automaker Renault showcased two concept cars, the Kwid Climber and the Kwid Racer at the Auto Expo 2016. The company also showcased the Kwid 1.0 litre SCe and the Kwid Easy-R.
The company’s Indian design studios in Mumbai and Chennai have designed the concept cars. “Kwid is a great success and has revolutionised the compact hatchback segment, living true to our promise of creating a new era in automotive history,” said Sumit Sawhney, CEO and managing director, Renault India. “It has generated unprecedented success in its category and has won the hearts of customers.”
The company has sold more than 100,000 units of Kwid, its small car, since the India launch about four months ago. Renault will also start exporting Kwid to other markets in south Asia and also make India an export hub for the small car.
It also plans to export the model to Africa at a later stage. The company plans to enhance production from 8,000 units a month to 10,000.
