Pickup is good till the time couple of people are inside the car, the moment more people steps in, pickup drops drastically. And it also affects it pulling competency. Fuel efficiency is decent, I can live with it, currently I am getting around 15kmpl with AC.
The Renault Kwid looks very attractive, more like a baby duster. Eye catching, you can easily identify Kwid on the road. Interiors are definitely best in the class - spacious, comfortable and elegant.
Engine is very noisy as compared to its rival, you cannot bear the noise for long period time, and company should improve on the engine. Also the gearbox is also bit hard, may loosen up after some period of time.
On the whole, I liked Kwid and I would suggest to go with the top model.
