Renault Triber becomes costlier by Rs. 10,000: Details here
In a major move, French automaker Renault has increased the prices of its popular multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), the Triber, in India. With the latest price revision, all the variants barring the entry-level RXE trim, have become costlier by Rs. 10,000. However, the company has not revealed the exact reason for the price hike as of now. Here's our roundup.
How much will they cost, post the price hike?
With a price hike of Rs. 10,000, the RXL, RXT, and top-of-the-line RXZ variants of the Triber are now available at Rs. 5.59 lakh, Rs. 6.09 lakh, and Rs. 6.63 lakh, respectively. That said, the entry-level RXE model has not received any price revision and it continues to sell at its previous price of Rs. 4.95 lakh.
The car will get a BS6 upgrade in early 2020
The Renault Triber, which is currently available with a BS4-compliant engine and manual transmission option, is likely to get a BS6 unit and an AMT system in early 2020. Hence, the car is expected to receive another price hike of Rs. 15,000-20,000 in January.
Meanwhile, here's recalling Renault Triber
To recall, the Triber offers an elongated design featuring a chrome-finished grille with company's emblem, silver-colored front as well as rear skid plates, and 'TRIBER' lettering on the tailgate. The car runs on 15-inch wheels and gets a blacked-out treatment on the side claddings, wheel arches, and roof rails. Moreover, it houses projector headlamps and all-LED fitments for DRLs, fog lamps, indicators, and taillights.
Inside the cabin
Inside, the Renault Triber offers a spacious and practical seven-seater cabin with foldable dual-tone seats, fabric upholstery, rear AC vents, and a three-spoke multifunctional steering wheel. The car houses a digital-analog instrument panel and an 8-inch infotainment unit with support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Furthermore, it gets four airbags, ABS with EBD, speed alert system, and a rear-view camera with parking sensors.
And, here's a look at the powertrain
The Renault Triber draws power from a BS4-compliant 1.0-liter petrol engine which comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and sends power to the front wheels. The unit is capable of producing 72bhp of maximum power and 96Nm of peak torque.
