Renault Triber Facelift: Planning to buy India's cheapest 7-seater family car? 5 things to consider
The newly launched Renault Triber Facelift has piqued the excitement of auto enthusiasts, especially those wanting to buy a family car. Priced at Rs 6.29 lakhs (ex showroom), the seven-seater car comes with improved features including larger touchscreen, wireless CarPlay, rear AC vents, and updated safety features. With both manual and AMT options, the car, which also offers an authorized CNG kit installation, makes it a strong contender in the segment. However, those looking for strong performance might be disappointed. If you're planning to buy the new Renault car, here are five things you should definitely know. 1. Would feel underpowered when fully loaded The 2025 Renault Triber Facelift continues to use a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine which makes 72PS power and 96Nm torque, which undoubtedly provides good fuel efficiency. It comes with two gearbox options: a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT (automatic). You can also get a CNG kit fitted at the dealership if you want. While the car is fuel efficient and can give good mileage (ARAI figure of about 17–20kmpl), making it cost effective, the 72PS engine can feel quite underwhelming especially when the car is fully loaded with seven passengers. If you're planning to buy the car for hilly areas, you might want to rethink. While the acceleration won't be brisk, it is the powertrain that would feel strained when the car is fully loaded. So, if you're buying the 2025 Renault Triber for an inter-city drive, it's a good option to consider. 2. Average automatic gearbox The AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) gearbox is not very responsive. It is less smooth and slower to respond compared to traditional automatics. While it will be a convenient drive in city traffic, you might notice shift lags during quick acceleration and overtakes. 3. You get authorised dealer-fitted, not factory-fitted CNG If you think the car offers a cost-effective, eco-friendly fuel alternative, it definitely does, but CNG kit is not factory-installed; it is dealership-fitted, which may affect warranty or long-term reliability. 4. Limited boot space As mentioned earlier, the car is best for inter-city use. If you plan to take it on longer outstation trips with all three rows occupied, space might feel cramped. The boot space is quite limited, leaving lesser room for luggage. 5. Basic material used for interiors The plastic quality used for interiors is practical and durable but lacks premium look and feel. If you are looking for a more upmarket interior experience, this might feel a bit underwhelming, especially compared to the rivals that offer soft-touch surfaces and more refined finishes. The Renault Triber Facelift is ideal for families seeking an affordable 7-seater with flexible space for inter-city rides. The competetive pricing which starts at Rs 6.29 lakhs and goes up to Rs 9.16 lakhs (ex showroom) still makes it a most value-driven and practical MPVs in its segment. FAQs Q. What is new in Renault Triber Facelift? A. The facelift brings a refreshed design, new LED headlamps, updated interior materials, a larger touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, new color options, and enhanced safety features like additional airbags and tyre pressure monitoring. Q. What is the price range of Renault Triber Facelift? A. The price of the 2025 variant starts at Rs 6.29 lakhs (ex-showroom) and goes up to Rs 9.16 lakhs for the top variant. Q. How is the engine performance? A. The 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine (72PS/96Nm) delivers good mileage but can feel underpowered, especially with seven passengers or while driving on hilly terrain.
