Renault is soon going to introduce an all-electric version of the Kwid in the international markets. Called as the K-ZE, this EV looks quite identical to its ICE sibling in terms of its design.
It is going to make its international debut on the 16th of April this year. This will be its international debut. Whether Renault decides to bring it to India, remains to be seen.
In terms of its design, the all-electric Kwid gets a slightly revised front fascia. It bears a similar design scheme which is quite identical to the current trends. Which means that it comes with LED daytime running lamps sitting up-front of the main headlamp unit. At the back, you are going to get LED tail-lamps.
