OFFERING surprising performance from its small engine, the Renault Kiger presents itself as a practical, fuel-efficient, and stylish semi-crossover featuring ample space and essential safety features.
The Renault Kiger’s 1.0L three-cylinder petrol engine may sound too small for a semi-crossover, but it is more than enough to take you wherever you want to go.
The car has a 999cc engine, what you would expect in a motorcycle, but delivers more than enough power to take it almost anywhere.
The Kiger seats five, with a ground clearance of 205mm and boot space of 405l – ideal for the young and adventurous.
Not only has Renault been in the auto industry since 1899, but it is involved in race cars, trucks, and tractors.
The Kiger was designed and built with safety, comfort, style and durability in mind.
The SUV is spacious enough to make any journey memorable.
The engine delivers a comfortable 52kW@6 200rpm, while the turbo version delivers 74kW @5000rpm.
And the French even thought of better fuel efficiency by means of either a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic or the easy-drive X-Tronic CVT.
Your Kiger will give you an average of 5.2L/100km, depending on road and driving conditions.
Fitted with a 40l fuel tank, the Kiger should be able to reach an estimated distance of 750km.
The car comes standard with front driver and passenger airbags, while certain models come with side airbags.
Rear parking sensors, an anti-lock braking system (ABS), an electronic brake-force system (EBS), and a load limiter and pretensioner (driver only) are part of the package.
The Kiger is a dynamic vehicle, complemented with a stylish two-tone interior.
Comfort and style are evident on the inside with a multifunctional steering wheel that houses functions like audio settings and handsfree cellphone controls.
Certain models come with air conditioning with rear vents for passengers, electric windows and enough storage space, and even a pull-out armrest complete with cup holders at the back.
The digital cluster instrumentation panel is practical and informative, with information displayed like instantaneous fuel consumption, electronic trip meters, average fuel consumption, average speed, distance to empty, and a low fuel warning gear indicator.
The vehicle comes in a variety of colours, of which the ice-cool white and Caspian blue are the most appealing.
