When will Renault open the bookings for the KWID 1000cc?

KWID 1000 cc still has time for the bookings as it has only yet been displayed and no details of it being on-road has been given by the company. They may have even tested it without a camouflage as no one can only see and tell that it is 800 cc or a 1000 cc car. It is expected to launch next month and would bring features like more power, better safety with optional ABS and dual airbags. It would be priced a bit higher than the older KWID, which has crossed around 1,25,000 bookings exactly a month ago.
