As for the design, it has to be said that the designers have done a great job of making the car look incredibly stunning. It borrows the styling cues from the all-electric Renault City K-ZE that debuted in China earlier this year. The headlamp units are positioned lower down the bumper while the top ones are now “silver streak” DRLs that neatly align with the chrome lining of the grille.

As before, the Climber models get more rugged looks with orange accents and (faux) roof rails. The side profile has been largely retained and at the rear, the taillamps get LED light guides. There are new 14-inch wheels too and the ground clearance now measures 184 mm.

Buyers can choose from 6 color options – Zanskar Blue (new addition), Fiery Red, Moonlight Silver, Ice Cool White, Outback Bronze, and Electric Blue.

The fresh interiors feature a new dashboard that we saw in the aforementioned K-ZE, with the gear selector knob of the AMT variants now positioned in the centre console. Features include an 8-inch MediaNAV Evolution touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay & Android Auto compatibility, push-to-talk voice recognition, front power windows, LED instrument cluster similar to the one we saw in the Triber, and front and rear 12V power sockets. Buyers can opt rear power windows as well.
