The India-made Renault Kiger has been nominated in the World Urban Car of the Year category for the 2022 World Car Awards. The Kiger is Renault’s first subcompact SUV in the country and has already rocked the market. In fact, Renault is already exporting the car to Nepal and South Africa which are two important markets for a car of this size. Kiger was introduced in India in February this year and is based on the company’s CMF-A+ platform. The Kiger shares its base with both the Renault Triber MPV, and the Nissan Magnite subcompact SUV.

The final for the category will be announced later, but for now the Renault Kiger finds its way into the list of nominees.
