Latest Updates

Wednesday, 01 April 2020 04:19 AM The Renault Lodgy Stepway was discontinued in India by April 2020, marking the end of its production run in the country. This decision was part of Renaults strategy to focus on other models. I think this was a necessary move given the competitive MPV market in India.

Sunday, 15 December 2019 03:50 AM In December 2019, Renault updated the Lodgy Stepway with several new features, including a more modern interior design and additional safety features. The updates aimed to keep the vehicle competitive in the market. I believe these updates were a good attempt to refresh the model, but it ultimately couldnt save it from discontinuation.

Friday, 09 August 2019 06:55 PM Renault emphasized the Lodgy Stepways practicality, with features like tumble fold seats, rear AC vents, and a rear seat armrest. These additions made it a comfortable and versatile option for families. I think these features were crucial in making the Lodgy Stepway a viable choice for family buyers.

Friday, 09 August 2019 09:21 AM The Lodgy Stepway came with a range of engine options, including a 1.5-liter diesel engine producing 110PS and 245Nm of torque, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. This engine provided a good balance of power and fuel efficiency. I think the engine options were well-suited for the Indian market.

Friday, 09 August 2019 03:24 AM In terms of technology, the Lodgy Stepway offered features like a touchscreen infotainment system, parking sensors, and a rear camera. These updates helped to modernize the vehicle and enhance the driving experience. I believe these tech additions were a significant improvement.

Friday, 09 August 2019 04:25 PM The Renault Lodgy Stepway was priced between Rs 9.43 lakh and Rs 11.9 lakh in India, making it a competitive option in the MPV segment. The pricing strategy was aimed at attracting both family buyers and fleet operators. I think the pricing was reasonable given the features and space it offered.

Friday, 09 August 2019 05:38 PM Despite its features and design, the Lodgy Stepway faced challenges in the Indian market, particularly with turbo-lag issues in the diesel engine. This affected its performance in city traffic and on inclines. I believe addressing these issues could have improved its market reception.

Tuesday, 23 June 2015 05:21 PM The Lodgy Stepway was also distinguished by its European design, which set it apart from other people movers in the Indian market. It featured a boxy design but without sliding rear doors, giving it a unique look. The vehicles side profile highlighted its size, measuring nearly 4.5 meters in length. I believe the design was a strong point for the Lodgy Stepway.

Tuesday, 16 June 2015 05:12 PM The Renault Lodgy Stepway was launched in India in June 2015, priced at Rs 11.9 lakh. This variant was designed to appeal to family car buyers with its enhanced styling and features. The Stepway edition included chrome studs on the front grille, faux skid plates, and silver accents on the sides. I think the Stepway variant was a stylish addition to the Lodgy lineup.

Tuesday, 16 June 2015 07:57 AM Renaults decision to launch the Lodgy Stepway was part of their strategy to expand their presence in the Indian MPV market. The vehicle was positioned to compete with other popular MPVs like the Maruti Ertiga and Honda Mobilio. I think this was a bold move, but ultimately, it didnt yield the desired results.

Renault Lodgy Stepway (2019) Review

15 Jun, 2015 03:19 PM

Synopsis

The Lodgy has been launched in a special new avatar, named as the Lodgy Stepway. Since its launch, it has been popular for its easy driving and utility features but still lacked the spark for being a game changer in the category. The car came up with plenty of features which made it an easy option over many others in the segment but its boxy appeal has earned it a bit of disapproval from some age groups. The minus points have been covered under the Stepway variant, making it good for everyone, every time.

The refreshed Stepway comes with a different approach than all the others available in the lining. The front gets an all-new grille, divided into 3 sections instead of 2, unlike the normal version of the Lodgy. The bumper at the front gets newly designed fog lamps and the same goes out with the rear. The front gets silver decoration on the center, making it more appealing than before. The body gets black cladding and the chrome trims on the doors looks perfectly placed in the Stepway version. The alloy wheels also get a new shade and Stepway badging can be seen in the door sills.

Rest of the car remains the same. The inside of the car features all the same features as that of the RxZ model. The availability is in both 7 and 8 seater versions of the car. The touchscreen infotainment system remains the same as that on the other models. No mechanical changes have been made into the car. The trim is available for INR 60,000 above the normal RxZ trims and comes with a totally different appeal than the normal MPV.
