The new Triber 100PS comes in a three‑tier lineup—Evolution, Techno, Emotion—starting at ₹7.84 lakh. A 1.0‑litre turbocharged TCe 100 engine spits out 100 hp and 180 Nm, while the car still keeps its sub‑four‑metre footprint and offers five‑, six‑ or seven‑seat layouts.
RGEP, Renault Group Entry Platform, is the first time the brand uses a fresh architecture in India. Renault says the change isn’t just a powertrain swap; it includes a new R‑EMS, a brushless DC cooling fan for tighter thermal control, revised suspension geometry, and calibrated braking tuned for Indian roads. All this is wrapped in a chassis that can host future powertrains and regulatory tweaks.
When you line the Triber up against the Maruti 800 or the Hyundai Grand i10, the price edge is clear: the 100PS version sits just a few lakh above the lowest‑priced variants of those rivals, yet it offers a full‑size boot, a digital instrument cluster and six airbags as standard. The 21 kpl fuel‑efficiency claim also nudges it ahead of the Maruti 800’s 18 kpl and the i10’s 19‑20 kpl.
Manufactured at Oragadam, Chennai, the Triber 100PS will roll out across major metros by the end of September, with a phased city‑wise launch that starts in Delhi and Mumbai. Buyers should keep an eye on the upcoming Techno variant, which will add a 7‑inch touchscreen and wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and on the Emotion trim that pushes the price to ₹8.99 lakh.
Overall, the launch underscores Renault’s strategy to blend a proven MPV platform with new engineering to meet GST‑friendly pricing and rising consumer tech expectations.
