Renault has officially launched the 2025 version of its popular 7-seater MPV, the Triber, with significant upgrades in features, fuel efficiency, and safety. Priced at an attractive ₹5.99 lakh (ex-showroom), the new Triber is positioned as one of the most affordable 7-seater family cars in India, offering SUV-like styling and advanced features that are usually seen in higher-priced segments.
Bold New Design
The 2025 Renault Triber gets a refreshed exterior design that blends practicality with an SUV-inspired look. The front fascia now features a redesigned grille with chrome accents, sleeker LED DRLs, and updated projector headlamps. The bumper has been slightly restyled to offer better aerodynamics and presence on the road.
The side profile continues to be clean but now comes with newly designed 15-inch alloy wheels and blacked-out B-pillars. At the rear, Renault has introduced C-shaped LED tail lamps, a roof-mounted spoiler, and a faux skid plate for a sporty touch. The ground clearance of 182 mm remains unchanged, giving it a slightly elevated SUV feel, especially in city traffic or uneven roads.
Fuel Efficiency Upgraded
One of the biggest highlights of the 2025 Triber is its improved fuel efficiency. Renault claims the new Triber delivers up to 32 KMPL, making it one of the most fuel-efficient 7-seater cars in the Indian market. The improved mileage has been achieved through engine tuning and smart weight reduction in the chassis without compromising build quality.
This figure is especially impressive for families looking for a car that can handle daily commutes and long road trips while saving on fuel costs. The combination of a compact frame and a fuel-efficient engine gives Triber a competitive edge in its segment.
Updated Interior Features
Inside, the Renault Triber 2025 now offers a much more premium feel compared to the outgoing model. The dashboard has been refreshed with a dual-tone finish and soft-touch materials. The 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system now supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. A new digital instrument cluster displays real-time mileage, gear shift guide, and tyre pressure monitoring.
The biggest talking point is the inclusion of a 360-degree camera — a segment-first feature in this price range. It provides a bird’s-eye view of the surroundings, making parking and tight turns far easier, especially in urban conditions. Renault has also added push-button start, auto climate control, rear AC vents, and steering-mounted controls across most variants.
Flexible 7-Seater Layout
The Triber continues to shine in space management. It retains its unique modular seating arrangement, allowing users to easily switch between 5-, 6-, or 7-seater configurations. The third-row seats are removable, which means you can create extra luggage space when needed.
Even with all three rows in place, the Triber offers decent boot space, and with the last row folded, it becomes a practical family car for weekend getaways or long road journeys. The headroom and legroom are sufficient for average-sized adults even in the third row, making it usable and not just symbolic.
Safety Comes First
Safety has received a big boost in the 2025 model. Renault now offers dual front airbags as standard across all variants. Higher trims get four airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, seatbelt reminders for all rows, and speed alert systems. The car has also been designed to comply with global crash test standards.
The addition of a 360-degree camera, hill start assist, and electronic stability control in the top variants means Renault has taken customer feedback seriously and raised the safety bar in the budget 7-seater segment.
Engine and Transmission Options
The new Triber continues to be powered by the same 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine that produces 72 PS of power and 96 Nm of torque. Renault has refined the engine to reduce vibrations and improve smoothness. The 5-speed manual and AMT (automated manual transmission) options are still offered, but with better gear ratio tuning for enhanced performance and fuel economy.
There are also rumors of a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol version being tested for launch later in 2025, which could bring more power for highway users without compromising fuel efficiency.
Variants and Pricing
The Renault Triber 2025 is available in four variants: RXE, RXL, RXT, and RXZ. Each variant comes with increasing levels of features and customization options. The base RXE variant starts at ₹5.99 lakh, while the top-end RXZ AMT version is priced around ₹8.47 lakh (ex-showroom).
The pricing strategy continues to make the Triber one of the most value-for-money offerings in its class, giving customers access to features normally found in cars above ₹10 lakh.
How It Competes With Rivals
The new Triber goes head-to-head with models like the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, Kia Carens, and the lower trims of the Mahindra Bolero Neo. However, Triber’s edge lies in its affordability and compact size, which makes it easier to drive in cities.
Unlike some of its rivals, the Triber doesn’t offer a diesel option, but it compensates with better mileage, modern tech features, and a practical cabin layout. For buyers seeking a 7-seater under ₹10 lakh, Triber remains a compelling choice, especially for first-time car buyers or small families.
Ideal for Budget Families
Renault has designed the Triber 2025 to cater directly to the needs of Indian families. The flexible seating, high fuel efficiency, compact footprint, and updated tech make it perfect for both city commutes and weekend getaways. With prices starting under ₹6 lakh, it’s easily accessible to middle-class buyers who want space, safety, and style without breaking the bank.
Road Presence and Driving Experience
Despite its compact engine, the Triber offers a surprisingly stable and comfortable ride, even with seven passengers onboard. The suspension setup has been tuned for Indian road conditions, and the car absorbs potholes and bumps with ease. The elevated driving position and wide windshield give it an SUV-like feel, further enhancing the driving experience.
While it’s not a performance car, the Triber is more than adequate for everyday use, school runs, family trips, and office commutes.
Final Verdict
The Renault Triber 2025 is a bold update to an already successful model. By offering modern features like a 360-degree camera, modular 7-seater layout, and 32 KMPL mileage at a price starting from just ₹5.99 lakh, Renault has once again proven its understanding of Indian consumers’ needs. For anyone looking to buy a practical, safe, and feature-loaded 7-seater without overspending, the new Triber is one of the smartest choices on the market.
