Ever since the Indian government pushed the EV culture in the country, top leading car manufacturer shifted their main focus to electric cars. The French carmaker Renault also followed the trend, and is now all set to launch the Kwid EV.
Ahead of the official release, the model has been spied during the testing phase, and has revealed some of the important details about it. Going by the images, the car will be a rebadged version of the Dacia Spring EV, which is currently sold in the overseas market.
Here’s What Report Says
It has been reported that the Kwid’s EV version will be more futuristic and filled with some of the advanced features currently offered by many companies. Some reports also suggested that the upcoming electric Kwid is likely to maintain the ongoing ICE model’s signature styling. However, it is expected to come with redesigned bumpers, updated lights, and appealing grilles at both ends, flaunting EV on it.
Upcoming Renault Kwid EV Battery, Range and Power
If launched, the Kwid EV is expected to share the exact power figure as the unit, which is currently sold in Europe. Customers can expect a 26.8 kWh battery pack, generating a max power of 43 bhp and 125 Nm of peak torque. The EV is also expected to provide a decent range of nearly 300 km on a single top-up. As far as the charging time is concerned, the small battery pack is likely to ensure to save you time by a few hours.
Upcoming Renault Kwid EV Features
If rumours are to be believed, the car is likely to have some of the new features, including a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, redesigned dashboard, some changes inside the cabin, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, supported by all car connect technology, among others.
