In a bid to spruce up the Renault Kwid’s appeal in the Brazilian market, the automaker introduced a cosmetically enhanced variant called the Kwid Outsider at the Sao Paulo Motor Show a few years ago. The Renault Kwid Outsider is to Brazil what the Kwid Climber is to South Africa – an accessorized variant. The Kwid Outsider is equipped with the usual suspects such as roof rails, big rub strips on the side, silver inserts on the bumpers, black plastic wheel arch cladding, and black finished wing mirrors. Of course, the car sports ‘Outsider’ decals on the front doors, just below the ORVMs. The South Africa-spec Kwid Climber received the same set of exterior accessories.
The interior too is similar to that of the Kwid Climber. The black cabin is full of contrast orange accents. Steering wheel, centre console, AC vents, gear knob, door pads and upholstery feature orange highlights. In terms of equipment, the Renault Kwid Outsider show car is based on the top-end trim. The rest of the car continues unchanged. The Brazil-spec Renault Kwid is powered by a 1.0-liter 3-cylinder flex-fuel engine which produces 70 PS and 96 Nm of torque while running on ethanol and 66 PS and 92.1 Nm of torque while on petrol. The claimed fuel economies stand at 10.5 kmpl (ethanol) and 15.2 kmpl (petrol). The motor is paired to a standard 5-speed manual transmission. The South Africa-spec Kwid 1.0 petrol variant offers 68 PS and 91 Nm in comparison.
The Renault Kwid Outsider is positioned as the top-end variant in Brazil, commanding a slight premium over the existing variant. Renault Kwid price is one of the most affordable in the Brazilian and South African market.
