Renault Triber

How is this a "practical" "6(7) seater" when all they did was put 2 seats in the boot, effectively making it useless for carrying anything other than a stick of celery back there?

DRIVEN | 2020 Renault Triber 1.0 Dynamique Energy

There’s room for a high-riding seven-seater with SUV-design cues says, Renault South Africa.

The French automaker's new Triber goes up against the Suzuki Ertiga, Datsun Go+, and the Toyota Avanza in terms of price. But the Triber has two extra seats up its sleeve, it’s a seven-seater.

Trim levels

Three trim levels will be offered: Expression, Dynamique and the top of the range Prestige. Notable features in the entry-level model include a cooled storage console, 12-volt socket in front while the Dynamique model adds a 20cm touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.

The Prestige model can be told apart from the other models by its LED daytime driving lights and also has keyless entry and a reverse parking camera.

Pricing

Renault is bullish with pricing that starts at a competitive R164 900. The Triber competes with the Datsun Go +, Suzuki Ertiga (another seven-seater) and the Toyota Avanza.

Expression - R164 900

Dynamique - R174 900 (auto R184 900)

Prestige - R189 900 (auto R199 900)

Renault has introduced the turbocharged petrol engine of the Triber at Auto Expo 2020. It’s a 1.0-litre three-cylinder unit, called HR10 internally.

Set to be introduced as a TCe (short for Turbo Control efficiency) unit, this engine will be tuned to develop 100 PS and 160 Nm of torque.

It will be linked to a 5-speed manual transmission. Whether a CVT option will be available or not is yet to be known.

A more capable version of the 1.0L TCe engine producing 117 PS and 180 Nm of torque is also made, but that won’t be available in the Renault Triber.

Expect that to be under the hood of the Renault HBC, a sub-4 metre SUV that will be launched in the second half of the year.

As for the automated manual transmission, that will be a 5-speed unit. It will be available with the current, BS-VI 1.0-litre SCe naturally aspirated three-cylinder petrol engine that develops 72 PS and 96 Nm of torque. The TCe engine will be BS-VI compliant right from launch.

Unequalled HR10 1.0L engine is a downsized version of the HR13 1.3L engine, a turbocharged four-cylinder unit co-developed by Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance and Daimler. It is offered in a number of models internationally, and soon, it’s coming to India.

The Renault Duster will likely be the first recipient of this engine in our market. Know more about this development here.

DRIVEN: Renault Triber 1,0 Prestige

Summary

Although the Kwid isn't in the same segment as the Triber, I need to mention it here. For a little more money, the Triber should honestly be the car to consider if you are in the market for a R160 000 to R170 000 vehicle and are considering these two products.

With the Triber, Renault has been able to offer a decent product at a very impressive price. At its current price point, it makes some other hatches look decidedly expensive. On first impressions, the Triber is better than we expected and if you simply must have a seven-seater in the entry-level segment, it's certainly worth a look.

They should try a 1.2l N/A motor. 88kw or so.

Would make alot more sense i think..

They don't have a NA 1.2 that makes 88kW, I don't even think there is any manufacturer who has such a motor. A good old fashioned 1.6 would have made much better sense in terms of keeping the costs low while giving the car enough power.
