2024 Renault Kiger: Tyres & Wheels

The entire five-variant lineup of Renault Kiger is being offered with 195/60 R16 tyres. While the lower-spec RXE, RXL and RXT variants come with 16-inch steel wheels, the higher-spec RXT(O) and RXZ variants are equipped with 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels. In all the variants of the Renault Kiger, the 16-inch wheels get CEAT SecuraDrive tyres as standard.

A popular tyre option for premium hatchbacks and compact SUVs, the CEAT SecuraDrive tyre is composed of a new-generation rubber compound for excellent cornering stability, braking and high-speed handling. While the wide longitudinal grooves of CEAT SecurDrive for Renault Kiger make the ride quality more comfortable, the optimized tread design of this tyre reduces the tyre noises.

The new Renault Kiger continues to come with a chrome-garnished front grille, triple LED projector setup, 16-inch machined alloy wheels and C-shaped LED tail lamps. However, the turbo variants now get red brake callipers for a distinguished appeal.
