The first thing that grabs attention once one enteres the cabin of the Renault Kardian, is the feature-packed and layered dashboard. The free-standing and large touchscreen infotainment system comes with a host of connectivity options including Apple CarPlay. The centre console gets three rotary dials, conventional USB and Type-C charging ports. Another interesting design element is the gear shifter, which looks like a compact toggler siting at the centre console.

Another interesting design element is the gear shifter, which looks like a compact toggler siting at the centre console. The SUV gets a six-speed dual-clutch transmission paired with the engine. It is not clear, if Renault will bring this car with an AWD. However, considering the fact that Kardian is a compact SUV, expecting an all-wheel drivetrain from this SUV is a bit extra.

Powering the Renault Kardian SUV will be a 1.0-litre GDI turbocharged petrol engine, which comes capable of running on flex fuel. This comes as an evolved version of the 1.0-litre three-cylinder powerplant that is already on offer in India. While the three-cylinder engine can churn out 99 bhp power and 160 Nm torque, the turbo-petrol unit generates 125 bhp power and 220 Nm torque. While the India-spec engine is available with options of a five-speed manual gearbox and CVT, the new motor gets paired with a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.
