Renault Triber Facelift: 5 Missing Features That Matter

The Renault Triber facelift has just launched in India, and it’s still one of the most affordable MPVs you can buy. While the new version looks sharper and has some cool updates, there are a few things Renault could have added to make it even more exciting. Let’s take a look at 5 big misses that would have made the Triber a much better deal!

1. It Needs More Power!

The biggest letdown in the Renault Triber facelift is the engine. It still uses the same 1.0-litre petrol engine with 72 PS power, which feels weak when the car is fully loaded. Many buyers were hoping for the turbo petrol engine from the Renault Kiger (which makes 100 PS).

With 5-7 people on board, the Triber struggles on highways and uphill drives. A more powerful engine would have made driving smoother and more fun. Right now, the lack of power is a big downside for families who travel often.

2. Still No Alloy Wheels – Why?

The new Triber gets 15-inch styled steel wheels, which look decent but not as premium as alloy wheels. Many budget cars now come with alloys, even in their basic versions. Renault could have at least offered them in the top variant.

Imagine how much sportier the Triber would look with black alloy wheels to match its black roof rails, ORVMs, and door handles. This small change would have given the MPV a much more premium feel.

3. A Bigger Touchscreen Would Have Been Nice

The facelifted Triber still has the same 8-inch touchscreen, though it now sits in a floating design. While it supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a larger screen (like a 9-inch or 10-inch one) would have made the cabin feel more modern.

Many rivals now offer bigger screens, and since Renault has been using this same system for years, an upgrade was expected. A bigger and sharper display would have made using maps and music much easier.

4. Where’s the Sunroof?

A sunroof is one of the most loved features in India. It makes the cabin feel more open and luxurious. Even some of the cheapest cars now offer a sunroof, but the Triber still misses out.

Families and young buyers love this feature, and adding it would have made the Triber stand out more. Renault could have made it an option in the top model, giving buyers one more reason to choose it over rivals.

5. A Branded Sound System for Better Music

The Triber comes with a 6-speaker audio system, which is okay but not great. Music lovers will find the sound quality average, and many might end up spending extra on aftermarket speakers.

A branded sound system (like Sony, JBL, or Harman) would have made a big difference. Since the Triber is a family car, good music quality is important for long trips. Renault could have teamed up with a good audio brand to make the cabin experience even better.

The Renault Triber facelift is still a great choice for those who need a spacious, budget-friendly MPV. It has a modular seating setup, decent features, and a low price tag. However, the lack of a turbo engine, alloy wheels, sunroof, bigger screen, and premium audio keeps it from being perfect.

If Renault had added even two or three of these things, the Triber would have been a much stronger competitor. For now, buyers who want more power and features might look at other options. But if you need a practical and affordable 7-seater, the Triber is still worth considering.
