Initially, the car was available with an 800 cc engine at a price between Rs 2.64-3.73 lakh.Recently in August, a 1,000 cc engine variant+ was launched priced up to Rs 3.95 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).So far in the April-September period this fiscal, the company has sold 56,028 units of Kwid.Similarly, Nissan said it is recalling 932 units of entry level car redi-Go from its Datsun brand in India to fix faulty fuel system."Datsun is conducting a voluntary recall campaign on certain India-manufactured Datsun redi-GO vehicles to inspect the fuel hose and fix a clip at no cost to the customer," Nissan Motor India said in a statement.Datsun has started notifying affected owners in India from this month. The recall will affect units manufactured up to May 18 this year, a company official said.The redi-GO hit the market on June 7 this year and has sold over 14,000 units.Both Kwid and redi-Go are based on the same CMFA platform of the alliance. Both the vehicles are produced at the alliance's Chennai plant.The Renault-Nissan Alliance is a strategic partnership between Paris-based Renault and Yokohama-based Nissan, which together sell one in 10 cars worldwide.Source: <a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/auto/miscellaneous/Renault-Nissan-recall-51-thousand-units-of-Kwid-redi-Go/articleshow/54813079.cms" target="_blank">ClickHere</a></blockquote>
