Whats with puny engine...
sunit dattani
Sir between Kigar manual turbo rxt n venue turbo s (it cost more) which is a better buy mainly for city usage... Thanks...
vishal dogra
Kiger vs magnite
Muthukumaran Vijayakumaar
Kiger looks to be a toy car... Especially the c design rear light is not good looking.
Vimal Dheeraj Meesala
It's more of a crossover than a compact SUV. But it still feels premium and more practical than magnite.
Nandish Shirodkar
Is it worth buying a new petrol car in 2021? Or should i wait for electric car? Please tell because I can't decide between these two 😫!
VASHIST NARAYAN Singh
Can we take non turbo with 5 people and full boot on uphills ?
Vijay Krishna
These days ,anything and everything is SUV in India , and with rising petrol price , small turbo petrol engines lacks efficiency ! Manufacturer's should switch back to "bigger" NA engines !
Bharat Gala
What Comfortable max speed u can drive this car continiously on Expressways ?
OhCrap247
Can we please stop calling these models SUVs?? These are not SUVs by long shot. They are raised hatchbacks with beefy body kits. 72hp just doesn't cut it to make it in the SUV category.
Shiv Pratap singh
Please make a video on new swift facelift
PK Scorpion
Wasted opportunity by Renault. Nothing looks exiting. Looks like scaled up model Kwid. Nissan Magnite is clear winner 🏆.
Vizz Varadhan
The maganite looks much more attractive than this.
MUHAMED NAKEESH
Kia sonnet is best
Vishal S
Best looking CSUV---->SONET
Damodar Mardolkar
All is hyped about the top model only ☹️☹️☹️
Magnite xv (the second top varients) give more features for the same price of rxt
mohit tejta
Nexon n venue are class apart all other compact SUV's.
Ravi Karthikeyan
After the test drive I have put away my decision to book the vehicle
1. The steering is unnecessarily tight and lacks total feedback.
2. The clutch is hard and long travel.
3. The gearbox is wierd in the sense it's kinda not smooth and had long travel.
These 3 things are the most important and basic things that need to be good in a car and drive this one lacks these I don't think one would enjoy it even have a stress free ride. Think twice before buying.
Also the non turbo engine is totally response less. Turbo engine is a gem.
Akhil AKT
Someone please tell me where the location is?
Nakul Dalakoti
Well I would prefer body of Kieger with interiors of Magnite 🤣

Aree goa wale beach pe

Would you buy this over a 1.2 K Series petrol from Maruti?
Sumeet jadhav
Well well well. Just in 2 months we will have TATA HBX. This mini rhino gonna destroy everyone equally.

5) Mahindra XUV300
6) Nissan Magnite

Rijin Raghavan
Hyundai venue and nexon
John Lyndem
I like Hyundai venue
Manoj Pardha
The best compact SUV in terms of design and looks is always Vitara Brezza from Maruti Suzuki
Hern anto
im thinking to buy kiger or raize since they r going to be launced in indonesia soon. I dont have any doubt on toyota aftersales service as well as spare parts supply. How about renaults reputation in india? please drop me some idea. Thanks.
vignesh pandian
Renault should be applauded for their effort they are taking indian matket very seriously and working very hard to compete with Asian manufacturers
Great job Renault
Sumit Baruah
Still think magnite is a better value for money
pavan rao
Magnetite is best looking
Ananthu Suresh
Better than Magnite...
More Space
Different drive modes
Instrument cluster graphics...looks like European touch...
Aggressive SUV design looks better than magnite...

Kriplani madam ka review chahiye ❤️❤️❤️
mathotmi jajo
Well done Renault
Arun Kumar
Pls do comparison with Nissan magnite
Indranil Saha
The Sonet is the best looking C SUV hands down
sri harsha
Does it have cruise mode? 🤔
Mohamed Wahith F
Automobile industry should look forward to bring budget electric car at this moment rather still focus petrol engines ... this is turbo year, ever make concentrate on turbo... appreciate #Renault for being more option on automatic transmission.. not just like #Hyundai works only top varient ..
Ajeet Deginal
I wish Hindustan Motors come back now with awesome cars and great build quality.😀 That ll be perfect sense for vocal for local 🔥
docnilno1
Tata Nexon looks the best.
Kiran Goud
How many of you noticed out had no Fog. Lamps
ATHARA DHOKE
The headlights itself are very low on the bumper, it doesn't need a fog lamp as such..
Shradha Wakchaure
Review is good, please give review about nonturbo engine and low end variants coz these cars are made for people who can't afford compact SUV like ecosport and Nexon
Regal Town
Most value for money car of its segment. If only they had a diesel engine.
Ishan Vadhera
Ugly looking clading ugly looking alloy wheels ulgy looking rear part.......nothing new from renault...only beautiful...thing ."Air knobs"
SoulsBorne Geralt
Hows the headlight performance at night?

Trideep Gogoi

veeresh veeresh
I take test drive of kiger it is very light weight and corners and curves handling is not good only we pay money for feature and style
Saravanan Chidambaram
A suggestion: Pls Post Where u shoot....will be more intresting.

Cruise control n sunroof need to get introduced...then it will be a hit..
Fazil B Gaffoor
Best looking compact suv is always tata Nexon
Jaggu smiles
Nice Designed Subcompact
Lal s
Interior Looks superb 👍👍
Mohammed Azmi
Come on nothing can beat the SONET in looks in this segment. If I am naming the cars according to looks it will be as follows:
1. Kia Sonet
2. Hyundai Venue
3. Renault Kiger
4. Nissan Magnite
Rakesh Yadav
Cruise control is missing

Magnite

I like ford eco sport the most but having 3 cylinder only is not smooth enough, if they come up with 4 cylinder then it will be the best compact suv
Esther Mezhu
No bro, Eco sport has 4cylinder and a (1.2 litre) turbo 3cylinder options. All compact SUV's come with a 3cyc if it's mated to a turbocharger.
Ronak Khona
Nikhil Bhatia is one best from Autocar India
Always look forward for him in a first drive
Mr.Cloudy
It's look like a toy car
ADITYA K
Nothing beats xuv300 in terms of performance, ride, handling, and stability in compact SUV or sub 4m segment... Even the diesel engine is very refined on par with korean rivals.. probably best diesel amt produced by any company
Shubham Kanojiya
Tata Nexon. Best.!
Ashok Kumar
Sorry petrol and Diesel went so high. Convert all cars to hybrid or full EV model
I am Blue
For a moment those floor mat’s blue lining made me think it had blue leds😅
Collins Shibi
Most waited video........
Was Waiting for a week
Akhil Nambiar
Which place is this?
naveen bala
Hope this car get 4 star ratings 😇
Prince
I think Kia Sonet looks more SUVish when it comes to under 4 meter SUV's.
ADITYA K
Xuv300 and nexon disagrees
Prathik Kumar
As usual a great review!! Overall kiger looks good but still.....!!!
santhosh balaji
sad to see Renault destroying the legacy of Duster with these so-called Compact Suv Kiger. Atleast get the Dacia Duster from Romania.
ankur mayatra
There should be a diesel variant
Anuj Sharma
Still Brezza/Urban Cruiser is the best
D K
Best looking is Tata Nexon.
Sundar Bala
Best looking SUV is Sonnet then Venue and EcoSport.Kiger looks just like kwid
Esther Mezhu
Yep, and also the most powerful in segment (1.0 litre 3cyc that makes 120bhp) but you forgot to include Breeza and Magnite.
Abhinandan Verma
Tata nexon 😍
Gaurav Thakur
the safety ratings will reveal how much of a cost it has been built too! When will it and it's cousin be tested by GNCAP
Amitoj Singh
Still Venue is the best looking Compact SUV
URBAN MOTORS SHOWROOM
I think now is a very good time to go for a hybrid engine.........with ....
engine for long commute
ev for city commute with atleast 100 km of practical range

Compare TATA Nexon vs kiger
alok raj
1) Kia Sonet.
2) tata nexon.
Others don’t matter.
Adithya Vasudevan
Renault has a sub-segment winner. I think the Kiger and the Magnite are scripting a revival for the two brands, paving the way for a bright future (if the momentum is sustained with annual facelifts). However, it does look like the segment is split in three. The Nexon, XUV 300 and Ecosport are the top of the heap. In between are the Venue, Sonet and Brezza. And then the Kiger and Magnite. Each sub-segment fits a certain customer profile - those who pick the Nexon, Ecosport or XUV 300 are not going to compromise, pick a Kiger. Likewise those who want just a Kiger need not shell out more to get a Nexon. The Kiger and Magnite will appeal to hatchback buyers looking to move a segment up, won't necessarily eat market-share from the Venue or Sonet, although expect the Brezza to take a hit. The XUV 300, Ecosport and Nexon largely compete with each other, and therefore won't be rocked by what happens in the other two sub-segments.
Mohamed Wahith F
Well said, along with above built quality of those cars are far better than kiger/magnite.. the target could budget customers will sure choice these two ...additionally, fuel price surge; buyer never mind of it.
Nikhil **
Have took it for a test drive. The ride quality is okkayish not to the level of xuv300 or Nexon. Also the vibration & engine noise can put you off. Also there is no safety features like traction control, hill hold, ESP, etc which are now becoming standard.
To conclude if your budget is within 8Lakhs this is a good choice . Kiger is aimed at the hatchback segment.
Gagan puri
Most awaited review!
Mukesh Mukesh
Ecosport anyday as it still looks a pure compact SUV n not pseudo
Chandrachur Niyogi
the Kiger looks good!!! would have been great with 4WD & 6-speed manual / 6-speed automatic transmission!!! now it's become hard to decide between the NISSAN Magnite & Kiger!!! by the way RENAULT seriously needs to dump this metallic blue shine colour!!! colours like this look good on portable Bluetooth speakers & limited edition Coca Cola cans not cars!!!
Karthik M
Sonet is the best looking compact SUV. It’s my personal opinion.
A D Enterprise
If they can make the same design in car big like scorpio, it'll be a game changer.
reachabbas79
which trimline has been used for the review?
Autocar India
We used the RXZ Turbo MT :-)

Indian government charge 28%GST+22% cess on vehicles ....for an 8lakh OTR hach gov is getting 4 lakh in taxes...that is more than even the car maker and dealers combined profit 😆
vaibhav padalkar
Wrong information
Navaneeth
22 % Cess is for more than 4 mtr, 2.5+ ltr diesel engine cars like Innova,Carnival etc.Dont fool people please.Also GST compensation cess on vehicles would be withdrawned in 2024.
Navaneeth
this is a SUB-4 METER,less than 1.5 ltr car,it has 28% GST plus 3% GST compensation cess.Total 31 % tax on base price.
bommu samy
In TN 28% GST + CGST. CESS 1% for 10 lakh below Ex showroom vehicles
Professional guide
@Shashank Gupta exactly ...cess is around 1%
