The mid-cycle update is expected to get far more changes than the recently launched MY2025 Kiger, which saw the compact SUV get a rejigged equipment and variant list. Renault India is expected to announce the facelift's prices later this year.
- Renault Kiger facelift spy images hint at minor redesign
- Changes to dashboard, upholstery and other bits expected
- Will be mechanically unchanged
Renault Kiger facelift exterior changes
Spied model heavily camouflaged but minor design changes seen
While the SUV spied wears heavy camouflage, the exterior design updates will be relatively minor. There seem to be no sheet metal changes in profile, and even the alloy wheels look to be of similar design and size as the current model. The spy shots also indicate that the split headlight setup continue, as do the C-shaped tail-lights. Among the changes expected to the Kiger’s exterior are revised front and rear bumpers, and the new Renault logo.
Renault Kiger facelift interior changes
Changes likely to be similar to ones seen on the Nissan Magnite facelift
Like its badge-engineered sibling, the Nissan Magnite, the Kiger’s cabin is also expected to sport cosmetic changes. Along with mild tweaks to the dashboard, the Renault compact SUV’s interior is likely to feature more soft-touch materials and new upholstery for the seats and door trim. An expansion of the featuyres list is also likely.
Renault Kiger facelift engine and gearbox
Same two engines with their respective gearbox options will continue
The current Kiger’s 72hp, 1.0-litre naturally petrol engine and the 100hp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine will continue to be offered on the facelift. The former comes with a 5-speed manual and an AMT gearbox options, while the latter gets a 5-speed manual and CVT auto options, and these are expected to continue unchanged.
