Led by the growing demand for the Kwid, Renault India has registered a growth of 144% with monthly domestic sales of 7,819 units in November 2015 as against 3,201 units in the corresponding month last year. 

Speaking on the company’s sales performance, Sumit Sawhney, country CEO and managing director, Renault India Operations, said, “When we launched the Kwid in India, we committed to launching a new era and benchmark in the Indian automotive industry. The outstanding feedback and unprecedented response to the car have proved us right. The growing acceptance by first-time buyers indicates that the Kwid is truly an aspirational product, offering an outstanding value proposition.”

The carmaker says it has substantially increased its sales and service network reach in India, from 14 sales and service facilities in mid-2011 to 190 currently, and will reach 240 facilities by the end of next year, which includes expanding its presence in existing and new markets in urban, semi-urban and rural India.
