Renault on Thursday revealed the new upcoming Kiger SUV which is expected to set foot in the market in the next few months. The Kiger will be placed in the hotly-contested sub-four meter SUV category which is currently ruled by the Kia Sonet. Kia's subcompact rival was introduced in India last year, and it is a technical cousin to the Hyundai Venue. Not to forget, Maruti Suzuki's Vitara Brezza has also been a strong seller until it was dethroned from its leading position in the segment.

The final production-spec version of the Kiger draws heavily from its concept which was made public in the past. It gets the same high-bonnet stance with sleek looking DRLs placed on the top, horizontally stacked ice-cube styled headlamps, aggressive-looking black coloured bumper design and much more. It has also been given funky-looking alloy wheels, a dual-tone roof, and a very hunched over stance which is evident from its rear glass and tailgate. Over the back, the inverted C-type LED tail lamps, along with a very sharp and bold bumper also lend it an aggressive appeal.
