Renault India is gearing up to launch the Renault Triber Facelift 2025 on July 23, promising a refreshed look, upgraded features, and a stronger value proposition in the 7-seater MPV space. With fierce competition from Maruti Ertiga, the updated Triber aims to regain momentum in a rapidly evolving compact MPV segment.
Since its initial debut, Renault Triber has been known for its affordability, practicality, and modular seating. Now, with its facelift version, the French automaker seeks to add a premium touch without compromising on its core strength — space and versatility.
What’s New in the Renault Triber Facelift 2025?
1. Revised Exterior Styling
The Renault Triber Facelift 2025 will showcase significant cosmetic enhancements to elevate its appeal. Updates include:
- A redesigned headlamp unit with LED DRLs
- Refreshed front grille with chrome detailing
- Sleeker alloy wheels for a more dynamic look
- Updated rear bumper with a bolder design
- New tail-lamp signature for enhanced road presence
These design tweaks aim to give the MPV a more aggressive and modern stance, placing it right next to its segment leader, the Maruti Ertiga.
Interior & Features Upgrade
Inside the cabin, the facelifted Triber will benefit from an upgraded material palette and fresh color themes. Expected enhancements:
- Dual-tone dashboard and seat fabric
- Improved material quality for a more premium feel
- A larger touchscreen infotainment system with wireless smartphone connectivity
- Fully digital instrument cluster with better resolution
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) for added safety
- Improved climate control panel and steering-mounted controls
Despite these upgrades, Renault retains the same 7-seater modular layout, with removable third-row seats and flexible boot space — a USP that has appealed to Indian families and fleet operators alike.
Engine and Performance Details
Under the hood, the Renault Triber Facelift 2025 will continue to be powered by the proven 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine, producing:
- Power: 72 bhp
- Torque: 96 Nm
- Transmission Options:
- 5-speed manual gearbox
- 5-speed automated manual transmission (AMT)
There are no changes expected to the powertrain for now. Renault believes this engine-transmission combination offers the right balance between performance and fuel efficiency for urban and semi-urban users.
Though slightly underpowered when fully loaded compared to Ertiga’s 1.5L petrol engine, Triber scores high in city usability and fuel economy.
Price Expectation and Variants
The facelifted Renault Triber is expected to be priced between ₹6.5 lakh and ₹9.0 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant and feature package.
The following variant lineup is likely to be retained with minor changes:
- RXE
- RXL
- RXT
- RXZ
With added features and cosmetic updates, each variant will likely command a price hike of ₹15,000–₹30,000.
How It Stacks Up Against Maruti Ertiga
| Feature | Renault Triber 2025 | Maruti Ertiga |
| Engine | 1.0L, 3-cylinder | 1.5L, 4-cylinder |
| Power | 72 bhp | 103 bhp |
| Transmission | Manual / AMT | Manual / Automatic |
| Seating | 7-seater modular | 7-seater standard |
| Boot Space | Modular (up to 625L) | 209L (fixed with all seats up) |
| Expected Price | ₹6.5L – ₹9L | ₹8.6L – ₹13.1L |
The key advantage for Triber remains affordability and practicality, whereas Ertiga offers a more powerful engine and brand trust. However, Renault’s new features, design changes, and competitive pricing may attract many urban and semi-urban customers seeking a reliable 7-seater in the sub-₹10 lakh segment.
Renault’s Broader Strategy in India
Renault is not stopping at the Triber facelift. The company is set to refresh its subcompact SUV Kiger later this year. Furthermore, plans are underway for two all-new SUVs, including:
- A 5-seater SUV in the B-segment
- A 7-seater SUV targeted at Hyundai Alcazar and Mahindra XUV700
These launches are aimed at reviving Renault’s sales in India, especially as it faces growing competition from Kia, Hyundai, and Tata Motors.
The Triber facelift, in many ways, is the first step in Renault’s India 2.0 strategy.
