Renault has silently updated the Triber MPV. It now gets various cosmetic as well as feature updates so let’s take a look.
Renault has introduced a new Cedar Brown shade and a dual-tone horn as standard across the range. The top-spec RXZ variant also gets some additional features like an option of dual-tone colour and a height-adjustable driver’s seat while the second-to-top RXT variant gets LED turn indicators on ORVMs and steering mounted controls.
Other features that have remained unchanged include upto four airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, parking camera, auto AC, cooled glove box, push-button start, electrically adjustable ORVMs, tilt-adjustable steering and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Renault has also taken this opportunity to increase the prices of the Triber by upto Rs 15,000. The dual-tone variants, on the other hand, are priced at a premium of Rs 17,000 over corresponding single-tone variants. Here is a detailed price list:

Things have remained unchanged under the hood. It continues to get a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that makes 72PS and 96Nm paired to a 5-speed MT or a 5-speed AMT. Renault is also expected to introduce the Kiger’s 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine on the Triber and it is expected to go on sale in 2022. The 1.0-litre turbo engine makes 100PS and 160Nm mated to a 5-speed MT or a CVT.
The 2021 Triber continues to rival the Datsun GO+. It also competes with similarly priced hatchbacks like the Maruti Swift, Grand i10 Nios, Ford Figo and the Ford Freestyle.
