Today, Renault India launched India’s first crossover MPV known as Lodgy Premium Stepway Edition promising a never-seen-before blend of performance, styling and best-in-class features.
After launching its MPV – the Lodgy – a few months ago, Renault today launched the crossover version of its MPV known as Lodgy Premium Stepway Edition. The car will be available in two trims – the 8 seater Lodgy RxZ delivering 108.5bhp of power, and the 7 seater Lodgy RxZ also delivering 108.5bhp of maximum power. Both the cars have an introductory price of Rs. 11.99 lakhs and 12.29 lakhs respectively (ex-showroom, New Delhi).
Commenting on the new variant, Sumit Sawhney, Country CEO and Managing Director, Renault India Operations said, “Renault’s core strength the world over is concept innovation, where we look at a segment and see how we can redefine it – either in practicality or in design and style. The Renault Lodgy was a breakthrough product which redefined the performance and convenience in the MPV segment. With the launch of the Lodgy Premium Stepway Edition today, we continue this process of innovation with the intent of adding value to our customers. The Lodgy Premium Stepway Edition has been designed with assertive and distinctive styling and is India’s first crossover MPV. Together with its innovative styling, it will deliver the proven superiority of performance, fuel efficiency, comfort, features, space and convenience, a blend which has enabled Renault to redefine the MPV segment in India.”
