Gearbox Type: CVT / 5-Speed MT / AMT
Renault offers three distinct transmissions for the Kiger: a 5-speed Manual, a 5-speed AMT (for the non-turbo engine), and a sophisticated X-Tronic CVT. The CVT is widely regarded as one of the smoothest in the sub-compact SUV class, eliminating the "rubber-band" effect often found in cheaper units.
Drive Type: Front Wheel Drive (FWD)
The Kiger is strictly a Front Wheel Drive vehicle. It utilizes the CMFA+ platform, which is optimized for weight saving and interior space. While it has SUV styling and high clearance, it is designed for urban roads and light trail usage rather than off-roading.
