The Triber MPV Helps Renault Post 63% Growth In October 2019

• The Renault Triber has achieved the 10,000 sales milestone in India.
• Renault posted a 63 per cent growth in October 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018.
• The Triber sub four-metre MPV is priced from Rs 4.95 lakh to Rs 6.49 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Renault Triber, also known as the modular MPV, has crossed the 10,000 sales milestone in India. This was achieved in a little over two months since the sub-four metre MPV’s launch on August 28, 2019. The carmaker has delivered its 10,001th car at its Mumbai dealership. Renault also claimed that the Triber helped it post 63 per cent growth in October 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018. This is impressive as the Indian automotive industry is currently facing a severe slump. 

The Renault Triber, which is a sub-four metre MPV, is a niche model thanks to its price tag of Rs 4.95 lakh to Rs 6.49 lakh. At this price, the Triber’s rivals are B-segment hatchbacks such as the Maruti Suzuki Swift, the Ford Figo, and the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios. Notable features include an 8-inch infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a manual air-con, rear cooling vents, push-button start, digital dials and projector headlamps. Powering the Triber is a BS4-compliant 1.0-litre Dual VVT engine that develops 72PS and 96Nm. It is offered only with a 5-speed manual. 

Here’s what Renault had to say:
