Earlier this month, Renault made a few changes to its Kiger line-up. The carmaker introduced the updated RXT (O) MT variant with new features. However, what went unnoticed, is that the RXT CVT variant got delisted from the website.
Renault has silently discontinued the Kiger RXT CVT variant. The only CVT option now is the top-spec RXZ trim, which is also available with a dual-tone exterior.
The CVT is only available with the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. It makes 99 BHP @ 5,000 rpm and 152 Nm @ 2,200-4,400 rpm. This engine is also available with 5-speed manual transmission.
The second engine option available in the Kiger is a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol unit. It makes 71 BHP @ 6,250 rpm and 96 Nm @ 3,500 rpm and comes paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT.
The Renault Kiger RXZ CVT is priced at Rs 10,99,990 and Rs 11,22,990 (ex-showroom) for the dual-tone version.
