Upcoming Renault Triber will be an affordable MPV based on the Kwid, targets rivals like Datsun Go+ and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
Renault is in search of fortune in India. Suffering from lacklustre sales for quite some time, the French automaker is desperate to get some oxygen and the Renault Triber seems to play the role for the brand. Rumoured to be the Kwid hatchback based MPV, this three-seater people mover will challenge the Datsun Go+ and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. It is expected to boost the brand’s sales numbers significantly.
Renault has already revealed the name online. The Renault Triber will come based on a highly modular CMF-A platform that will help both Renault and Nissan in coming days with new products. What excites me is the chance, that it could be another gamechanger in the highly in-demand MPV segment, just like its sibling Renault Kwid.
