1. Launch & Pricing Overview
The facelifted Renault Triber 2025 is scheduled to debut in India on 23 July 2025, marking the first major update since the model’s 2019 launch. Prior to that, a mid‑2025 update (MY2025) brought modest feature enhancements and minor price hikes in models already on sale
MY2025 Pricing (pre‑facelift)
- RXE (base): ₹6.10 lakh (ex‑showroom)
- RXL: ₹7.00 lakh
- RXT: ₹7.71 lakh
- RXZ: ₹8.23 lakh (manual), ₹8.75 lakh (AMT)
- This update saw ₹10,000–20,000 price increases and discontinuation of RXT AMT
The upcoming facelift is expected to continue within an estimated ₹6.25–9.50 lakh ex-showroom band, depending on variant and optional features
2. Exterior Design: Fresh & Modern
- New LED projector headlamps paired with eyebrow-style LED DRLs positioned along the hood edge
- Redesigned front grille and bumper, featuring larger air intakes and repositioned fog lamps for a more accentuated look
- 16-inch alloy wheels (up from 15”) with sharper design; top variants may add dual‑tone roof options and sportier wheel arches
- Subtle rear modifications, including wraparound LED taillamps, sculpted bumper, and slight chrome trims
Despite the visual updates, overall dimensions remain unchanged—Triber retains its compact sub‑4 metre body: ~3,990 mm length, 1,739 mm width, 1,643 mm height, with wheelbase ~2,636 mm
3. Interior & Cabin Upgrades
While the cabin retains its flexible layout and seven‑seat flexibility, the facelift improves comfort, tech, and quality
- Dashboard & trim: dual-tone layout, lighter shades, and increased soft-touch surfaces for a more refined feel
- Infotainment: upgraded to an 8-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay; some sources suggest a wireless connectivity option in higher trims
- Instrument cluster: digital or semi-digital display with customizable layouts and improved visuals
- Controls & features: multi-function steering, push‑button start with keyless entry, ambient lighting (expected top variants), and wireless phone charging
- Air conditioning & comfort: rear AC vents, automatic climate control (in higher variants), improved seat upholstery, recline and sliding second row
- Storage & flexibility: continued highlight—removable third-row, large boot space up to 625 L when last row is folded, plus plentiful in-cabin cubbies and optional cooled glovebox
4. Powertrain, Fuel Efficiency & Performance
Mechanically, the facelift retains Renault’s 1.0‑litre, 3‑cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine, delivering approximately 71–72 PS and 96 Nm of torque. Transmission choices include a 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT; AMT is reserved for higher trims, while manual is available across the lineup. Expected fuel economy remains strong, around 19–20 km/l in city and highway conditions, with real-world estimates between 16–21 km/l depending on driving style and trim.
There is speculation about a possible turbo-petrol variant using the Kiger’s 1.0 L turbo engine (~99 bhp, 160 Nm, CVT/MT), but most credible sources indicate that the facelift will not include it initially. Renault appears to be prioritizing affordability and packaging consistency for this cycle.
CNG kits remain available through dealers in select trims, though no factory-fitted CNG option has been confirmed till now
5. Features & Variant-Wise Upgrades
- All trims now have 4 power windows and central locking as standard
- RXL variant got the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment, rear camera, and rear speakers.
- RXT variant received stylish 15-inch flex wheels; RXT AMT discontinued
- LED DRLs, fog lamps
- Digital cluster, wireless charging
- Automatic climate control, rear vents
- Keyless entry, push-button start
- Ambient lighting (optional)
- Reinforced safety structure
- Dual airbags across all variants; top trims may feature up to six airbags
- ABS with EBD; forward speed warning, seatbelt reminders
- Reverse parking sensors and camera (rear camera more widely available now)
- Electronic Stability Control (ESP) and Hill Start Assist expected in higher trims
- Improved structural rigidity to meet stricter crash safety norms, possibly targeting a 4-star or higher GNCAP rating
6. Practicality & Owner Benefits
Space & Modularity
The Triber continues as a 7-seater with a modular seating layout. Third row seats can be removed entirely to free up up to 625 litres of boot space—making it ideal for large families or shared mobility use. The middle-row is adjustable and foldable for passenger comfort or luggage flexibility.
Low Cost of Ownership
With its fuel-efficient engine, available AMT transmission, and Renault’s service network, the Triber remains a low-cost vehicle to own and run—especially when compared to rivals with higher maintenance costs or larger engines.
Tax Benefits
Being a sub‑4-metre vehicle, it qualifies for lower excise duty in India, helping keep sticker prices competitive
7. Competitor Comparison
- Maruti Suzuki Ertiga – priced higher (~₹8.6–13 lakh), packs larger engine and more space, but higher cost.
- Kia Carens – richer feature list and turbo engine optional (~₹10–18 lakh), but over budget for many entry families.
- Toyota Rumion / Maruti XL6 – Crests above Triber on refinement and build, but significantly more expensive
8. Final Verdict
The Renault Triber 2025 facelift smartly refines what already was a highly practical, value‑for‑money sub‑4 m MPV
- Significantly updated front fascia with LED DRLs, new grille and bumper
- Larger alloy wheels and dual‑tone styling cues
- 8-inch touchscreen, digital cluster, enhanced infotainment + connectivity
- More premium cabin materials and improved comfort for all three rows
- Expanded safety features including ESP, HSA, more airbags, rear camera/sensors
- Retains the economical 1.0 L NA petrol engine with manual and AMT options
- Continues to offer unbeatable modular 7-seater flexibility with foldable seats and large boot
- Maintains its low-cost positioning thanks to sub‑4 m tax benefit and fuel economy
For Indian buyers seeking a practical, spacious and affordable MPV for families or shared use, the 2025 Renault Triber facelift offers a compelling package—especially as rivals push higher price points for comparable safety and features.
