“Every customer has expectations. More often than not, products do not meet customer expectations. It is extremely rare to come across a product that not only meets expectations, but also goes a step further in bringing to reality customers’ dreams,” said Sarosh Poornam, product manager for Renault. The Renault KWID is a rare product and in its true sense the vehicle is not just a lifestyle enhancer but a life enhancer.
