Autocar reports introductory ex-showroom prices of ₹16.99 lakh for Evolution, ₹18.99 lakh for Techno and ₹19.49 lakh for Emotion. These are different trim prices, so a top-variant photograph should not imply every feature is standard.

Renault describes a 1.8-litre petrol engine paired with two electric motors, a 1.4kWh battery and a multi-mode hybrid transmission. The manufacturer quotes combined power of 160 PS for this E-Tech strong-hybrid system.
3/6
Autocar lists a 10.1-inch touchscreen, seven-inch driver display and dual-zone climate control on Evolution. Techno adds features including a panoramic sunroof, while Emotion brings ventilated front seats and a larger driver display.
4/6
Renault says the system can switch between electric, petrol and combined operating modes. The engine remains part of the powertrain; short electric-running phases should not be confused with the long-distance operation of a battery-electric SUV.
5/6
Autocar identifies the 29-kmpl mileage as ARAI-certified. Use it as a reference when comparing specifications, while recognising that traffic, load, climate-control use and driving style can change actual fuel consumption on your own journeys.

The launch report says bookings are open at ₹21,000, with deliveries scheduled from November. Ask for the exact trim’s on-road price and a delivery commitment, including the conditions under which the introductory price applies to your order.
