This Attractive, Innovative and Affordable car, is a true game-changer and volume driver for Renault India. Staying true to its commitment to keep building on the success of KWID with breakthrough product innovations, Renault today announced the launch of the new KWID Super Hero Edition in association with Marvel.

With Renault KWID Super Hero Edition, fans will now be able to take this Marvel experience everywhere,” said Abhishek Maheshwari, Country Head, Disney India.
EXCLUSIVE THEMES CREATING A DISTINCTIVE PERSONALITY
KWID Super Hero Edition draws on the DNA of an SUV like KWID and is inspired by strong and sturdy appearance of the iconic Marvel Super Heroes — Iron Man and Captain America. KWID Super Hero Edition’s lines are reflective of its tough, robust character and underpin its unique, premium look.
The KWID Super Hero Edition will be available over the top-end 1.0L RXT (O) variant in manual transmission and automated manual transmission, with two exciting colour-themed versions Renault KWID Captain America inspired Edition in Exclusive White Shade with Captain America’s iconic shield and suit theme and RenaultKWID Iron Man inspired Edition in Exclusive Red Shade with Iron Man’s Arc Reactor and armour theme.
The KWID Super Hero Edition is the ultimate offering for a Marvel Super Hero fan who wants an innovative and affordable car to #SuperHeroesSuperKWID. Both, the Iron Man and the Captain America inspired Editions reflect unique personalities true to the Marvel Super Heroes.
KWID SUPER HERO EDITION: AN IDEAL COMBINATION OF POWER AND DESIGN
The 1.0 litre SCe engine which powers the KWID Super Hero Edition is optimally designed for better performance. The 4 valves per cylinder of the Double Over Head Camshaft (DOHC) layout ensures low pressure drop and super-efficient valve lift for a higher air filling; thus allowing the engine to make usable power at low end, mid-range and high-end rev bands. This high technology engine offers excellent drivability, be it slick city streets or on the highway.
CONVENIENT & INNOVATIVE EASY- R AMT WITH SHIFT CONTROL DIAL
The Easy-R Gear Box is a 5-speed Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) technology derived from Renault’s rich and successful expertise in Formula 1. It will enable a clutch free driving experience that combines the fuel economy and performance of a manual transmission with the convenience of automated gear shifting. The Innovative Shift Control Dial with three modes Reverse – Neutral – Drive has been smartly designed for ease of use. An advanced control unit automatically optimizes gear shifting in accordance with driving conditions for smooth and regular acceleration to offer a comfortable and stress-free driving experience.
UNCOMPROMISING SAFETY
Safety is of paramount importance for Renault, and all its products meet and exceed the requisite safety standards set by the Indian regulatory authorities. Apart from several active and passive safety equipment, the KWID Super Hero Edition features a driver airbag and first-in-class pro-sense seat belts – pretensioners with load limiters, an important safety feature that is usually offered in upper segment cars as standard.
