India is a nation with an extensive road network that connects almost all parts of the world’s seventh-largest country with each other. Unfortunately, however, some of our roads are in a rather pitiable state and it often takes a really rugged vehicle to ensure trouble-free travel on these roads. Today, let’s have a look at the top 10 highest ground clearance cars in India across various segments to help you choose from vehicles that are most accomplished on the challenging Indian road conditions.

Renault Kwid

With a ground clearance of whopping 180 mm, the Kwid is a budget-end hatchback that’s almost a mini-SUV in some aspects. The entry-level offering from Renault India also offers a spacious cabin and mini-Duster looks. It is available with both 0.8-litre and 1.0-litre engine options with the latter also getting an AMT version.

Plus, its crossover-like styling gives it a mini-Brezza-look, while the plastic cladding on the lower body helps it venture on rough roads without the fear of getting the paint work scratched.
