Renault India has launched the Triber Turbo, introducing its new Renault Group Entry Platform (RGEP) in India. Priced from ₹7.84 lakh, the new version combines a turbocharged petrol engine with the Triber’s compact dimensions and flexible seven-seat layout.
While the exterior remains familiar, Renault says the Triber Turbo has been comprehensively re-engineered, with changes to the engine management, thermal systems, structure, suspension and vehicle dynamics.
New Turbo Engine and RGEP Platform
