Renault is slowly emerging as the volume player in the Indian automobile industry. The reasons for this are the affordability and practicality aspects of its products. One of the most successful products from Renault include the Kwid and the Triber. Both of these cars punch way above their weight by being unique products in their respective segments. Kwid is sort of the only micro-SUV-ish product in the segment that can truly carry that tag. Triber is one of the most affordable MPVs in the country. This is a perfect blend of affordability and practicality. Then there is the recently launched, the most affordable compact SUV in the country, the Kiger. All these three products have been driving sales for Renault as a result of which Renault sits at a comfortable around 4% market share in our market. Let us look in detail, the sales report of these individual products from Renault.

Renault Kiger
Let us start with the newest Renaults in India. The compact SUV has garnered a ton of attention from the customers, mainly due to its astoundingly inexpensive price tag. As a matter of fact, it undercuts almost all the premium hatchbacks as well, which might persuade the customers towards Kiger from across the segments. Renault announced that it was the strategy to make people think of buying the compact SUV, even when they set out to buy a premium hatchback. That has worked quite well for Renault as it sold over 3,800 units of the Kiger in March, compared to over 3,200 units in February. This marks an impressive 19% growth in sales on an MoM basis. The Renault Kiger costs between Rs 5.45 lakh and Rs 9.72 lakh, ex-showroom.

Renault has been focussing on volume-intensive products in our country and it has been quite successful because of that. It will be interesting to see if Renault could be able to sustain this growth with these three products primarily or we might see something new from the French carmakers even though there is no news of that as such.
