🚘 A Fresh Take on Budget MPVs
Renault has unveiled the 2025 Triber facelift, a bold refresh of its much-loved compact MPV. Priced from just ₹6.29 lakh (ex-showroom), the Triber remains India’s most affordable 7-seater, but now it comes with more style, tech, and safety features, raising the bar for budget-conscious families.
🆕 What’s New in the 2025 Facelift?
The facelift brings significant design and feature upgrades without altering the core practicality that Triber is known for. Highlights include:
- Redesigned front grille with a gloss black finish and chrome slats
- LED projector headlamps with signature DRLs
- Revised bumpers and new dual-tone colour options
- Blacked-out ORVMs and door handles on higher variants
- Dual-tone wheel covers mimicking alloy wheels
This facelift aims to give the Triber a premium appeal despite its budget price tag.
💰 Pricing & Variants
The new Triber is available in four trims:
- RXE (now called Authentic)
- RXL (Evolution)
- RXT (Techno)
- RXZ (Emotion)
The top-end Emotion AMT trim is priced at ₹9.16 lakh, while the base variant starts at ₹6.29 lakh, making it one of the most value-for-money options in the segment.
⚙️ Powertrain & Performance
Under the hood, the Triber retains its 1.0L 3-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine delivering 72 PS and 96 Nm of torque. It’s mated to a:
- 5-speed manual gearbox as standard
- 5-speed AMT available in the top variant (₹52,000 extra)
While the performance remains modest, it’s adequate for city driving and moderate highway use. For mileage-conscious buyers, a dealer-fitted CNG kit is also on offer.
🖥️ Tech & Infotainment Upgrades
The cabin sees a noticeable uplift with smarter, better-positioned tech:
- New 8-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- 7-inch full digital driver’s display
- Updated dashboard with dual-tone textures and geometric patterns
Rear AC vents, power windows for all rows, and multiple USB charging ports continue to make it a family-friendly cabin.
🛡️ Safety First: 6 Airbags Now Standard
Safety sees a major boost across all variants:
- 6 airbags now standard (driver, co-driver, side, curtain)
- ESC, ABS with EBD, rear parking camera, and sensors
- Front parking sensors, TPMS, and cruise control on higher variants
- Automatic headlamps and rain-sensing wipers are also included
Renault has prioritised safety, a crucial selling point in the MPV segment.
🧳 Flexible Space: Best-in-Class Boot
The biggest USP remains Triber’s flexible 7-seat layout, with the third-row seats being fully removable, offering up to 625 litres of boot space when needed. This versatility is unmatched at this price point.
🔁 Triber vs Rivals: Better Than the Ertiga?
While the Maruti Ertiga sits a segment above, the Triber offers:
- LED projector headlights
- Wireless charging
- Removable third-row seats
- Floating touchscreen display
- Front parking sensors
…at nearly ₹3 lakh cheaper, making it a real challenger for buyers looking at a low-cost 7-seater with modern touches.
📊 Fuel Efficiency & Real-World Use
The Triber continues to offer strong mileage figures:
- Manual: ~19 kmpl
- AMT: ~18 kmpl
- CNG (dealer kit): ~26 km/kg (estimated)
This makes it an economical choice for large families, urban commuters, and fleet operators alike.
🔧 Warranty & After-Sales
Renault continues to offer a standard 2-year/50,000 km warranty, with options to extend up to 5 years. With a widespread service network and low maintenance costs, the Triber remains a long-term investment that is attractive.
🧠 Final Verdict: More Than Just a Budget MPV
The 2025 Renault Triber facelift isn’t just a cosmetic update—it delivers real improvements in tech, safety, and comfort. While the engine could use more power for highways or hill drives, it shines in everyday usability.
If you’re looking for a modern, reliable, and spacious 7-seater under ₹10 lakh, this new Triber facelift deserves serious consideration.
