Renault is preparing to roll out the updated Renault Kiger Facelift in India on August 24, 2025, just weeks after launching the facelifted Triber. The company has released the first official teaser, giving a quick glimpse of the SUV’s refreshed front end. While the video keeps most details under wraps, it hints at redesigned LED lighting, a bolder grille, and a slightly more upright stance for a sportier, more premium look.

Renault Kiger Facelift Design Changes
Spy shots of heavily camouflaged test mules suggest that most updates will focus on the front fascia. Expect a revised grille pattern, sharper LED headlamps, and a flatter bonnet. The Kiger’s rugged yet city-friendly proportions remain, with muscular body cladding and a high ground clearance. The side profile will likely be unchanged, retaining its dual-tone diamond-cut alloy wheels, roof rails, and squared wheel arches. At the rear, the signature C-shaped LED tail lamps could get new detailing, paired with a roof spoiler and a chunky bumper.
Renault Kiger Facelift Interior and Features
Inside, Renault is expected to introduce a new freestanding touchscreen infotainment system, updated seat upholstery, and a fresh cabin theme. The current model already offers a long feature list, including a 7-inch digital driver display, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control, wireless charging, semi-leatherette seats, cruise control, and ambient lighting. Safety remains a strong point, with 17 standard safety features across all variants such as ESP, traction control, hill start assist, dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors.

Renault Kiger Facelift Engine and Transmission
Under the hood, the Kiger facelift will continue with the same petrol engine options:
- 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol (72 PS, 96 Nm) with a 5-speed manual or 5-speed AMT
- 1.0-litre turbo petrol (100 PS, 160 Nm) with a 5-speed manual or CVT
Both engines are E20 fuel-ready, and Renault is also expected to continue offering its RTO-approved CNG kit option.
Expected Price and Rivals
The current Renault Kiger is priced between ₹6.15 lakh and ₹11.23 lakh (ex-showroom). The facelift could see a marginal price increase. It will compete against popular compact SUVs such as the Maruti Brezza, Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Maruti Fronx, Toyota Taisor, and Skoda Kylaq.
With a mix of subtle styling updates, familiar engines, and a proven feature set, the 2025 Renault Kiger facelift aims to remain a strong contender in India’s competitive sub-4m SUV segment.
