It continues to utilise the 72PS/96Nm 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that drives the front wheels via a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT. The 100PS 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine will be launched in 2022.

The Renault Triber’s only direct competitor is the Datsun GO Plus. It can also be considered an alternative to the Maruti Suzuki Swift, Ford Figo, and the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios.
