Round 2 of our budget car showdown sees the Renault Kwid take on the recently-updated Suzuki S-Presso in a quarter-mile drag race.

It’s the budget battle you’ve been waiting for as the Renault Kwid takes on the Suzuki S-Presso. Both of these cars sell in large numbers and are popular in South Africa, but what if you wanted to settle that age-old argument: which one is faster? It’s the Suzuki S-Presso versus the Renault Kwid in a proper quarter-mile drag race! 

Loaded with around 50 kW and 90 Nm the two budget machines are nearly identical in the power stakes with only a slight weight difference to the advantage of the Renault Kwid.
