Renault is all set to introduce its 'mini Duster' compact SUV in 2027, equipped with hybrid and electric powertrains.

Renault India is all set to introduce another SUV in the sub 4-meter SUV segment by Diwali 2027, just after a year of introducing the next-generation Duster. The vehicle codenamed as RB3-K2 B-SUV will be powered with the most diversified powertrains in the compact SUV segment.

Renault has high hopes with this launch as they are targeting around 80,000-90,000 unit sales from the sub-4 meter electric SUV space. 

Renault ‘Mini Duster’ Technical Details

Renault’ upcoming SUV is expected to be powered with multiple powertrains including an option of two battery packs: 35 kWh and 55 kWh, a hybrid, a new 1.2-litre NA engine, and a turbocharged engine. Renault’s aim is to offer the most diversified powertrain options in a single car and would be targeting the Rs 10-20 lakh (Ex-Showroom) price segment.

Visually, the vehicle could derive styling inspiration from the Bridger concept that showcased Renault’s future design vision for emerging markets. Thus the upcoming new SUV could be positioned between the Kiger and Duster. However, the company will be revealing the official details on March 10, 2026.

The upcoming model will be underpinned by new R-GMP platform, which will be locally manufactured with India-specific requirements in order to reduce the manufacturing cost in order to ramp up production volumes for Renault.
