What defines the Triber is its cabin more than its engine. It has a flexible seven-seat layout. The second and third row that can be moved around or taken out to free up boot space. That is rare at this price. There is one engine, a 999cc three-cylinder petrol making 72hp at 6250rpm and 96Nm at 3500rpm. It pairs with a 5-speed manual from the base model up to the Emotion trim, and a 5-speed AMT is the only automatic, on the top variant.

The Triber measures 3985mm long, 1935mm wide and 1643mm tall, on a 2636mm wheelbase with 182mm of ground clearance suited to Indian roads. Seven seats are standard from the base model up. Boot space is a flexible 84 to 625 litres, depending on how the second and third rows are set. A 40-litre fuel tank is shared by the top variant and every trim below it.

On safety, Renault fits the Triber with six airbags, stability control, front disc and rear drum brakes, and a rear cross-traffic collision avoidance system. It has a 4-star Global NCAP rating. This kit is standard across the range. Compare the base variant against pricier seven-seat MPVs and you are not giving up crash protection by skipping the top variant.

After driving the Elevate, I felt this is the best car in its segment. Spacious, fun to drive, nice handling and when you need power it can show what it has. Also the interiors are very decent.

The Renault Triber is worth considering for its driving experience with the AMT.

I have been driving a Renault Triber RXZ AMT for a long time. However, the transmission feels sluggish, and the car feels underpowered. My driving is 80% on highways and 20% in the city, with an annual running of approximately 8,000 km. Safety is a major concern for me. Please suggest the best 7-seater family car options under Rs. 20 lakh.

Given your usage pattern of 80% highway driving, the Renault Triber's limitations are understandable. The AMT gearbox is not the most responsive and the engine does feel underpowered.Go for the Kia Clavis HTK+ Turbo DCT. It is a comfortable, spacious seven-seater which delivers strong performance that you will certainly appreciate on your long drives. The HTK+ is well-equipped too, and the interior feels quite premium too. As far as safety goes, the Clavis is equipped with all standard features like 6 airbags, ESP, hill-start assist, ABS with EBD, etc. Overall, it'll feel like a huge step up over your Renault Triber AMT.

Is the Triber AMT worth buying?

For the money and size, the facelifted Renault Triber is a good option. It’s compact yet manages to seat seven adults, which is quite a feat of packaging. It rides and handles well, and is easy to manoeuvre in the city, so it works nicely as a family car in urban conditions.The only real issue is the 1.0-litre petrol engine, which is weak and not very refined, and with the AMT, it feels even more so, especially when fully loaded or on inclines. The convenience of the AMT in traffic is good, but it does highlight the lack of performance.A very relevant alternative is the newly launched Nissan Gravite, which is the Nissan version of the Triber. It is a mechanically identical MPV, differing mainly in styling, trim and badge. Crucially, it’s priced very aggressively, so in many cases the Gravite will work out a bit cheaper than the equivalent Triber variant, making it even more attractive if you are value-conscious.However, both the Triber and Gravite make sense primarily if you can’t stretch your budget. If you can, it’s better to step up to a Maruti Ertiga, which is larger, more comfortable, nicer to drive, and backed by Maruti’s service network that’s hard to beat in India.

I currently own an Alto that is now 15 years old, and I am looking to replace it. My usage is primarily within the city, with occasional highway trips during summer and winter vacations. I need a family car that can comfortably accommodate my three growing children, although they are still a few years away from their teenage years. I do not want to spend too much on the new car. I am considering the Nissan Gravite, Renault Triber, and Tata Tiago. I am also thinking about choosing a Maruti Suzuki car instead. Considering my family size, usage pattern, and budget-conscious approach, which car would you recommend?

•9w

Go for the Renault Triber. Your three kids will fit far more comfortably than in a Tiago, and its flexible seats mean you can use it as a five seater now, and a more comfortable six or seven seater when they are older.In the city, this Renault car is easy to drive and park as it is a small car, but you get rear AC vents and a wide second row, so school runs and weekend outings are comfier. For road trips, pop out the third row and you get huge boot space. It will cruise fine, but if fully loaded, you will need a heavier right foot for hills and overtakes - its 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine is the only real compromise. The Renault Triber Price starts at Rs 5.81 lakh (ex-showroom).The Tiago is a sweet, tough little hatch and nicer to drive, but with three growing kids you will outgrow its rear seat and boot fast, then feel the need for another upgrade. The Gravite has all the strengths of the Triber, just in a Nissan-badged and styled package, so pick based on your preference and which brand has a dealer and service centre close to you.

I want to upgrade to a seven-seater, but I am confused between a new Triber or Ertiga, and a used XL6. My usage is mostly in the city with occasional highway trips. My priorities are low maintenance and good mileage. Please suggest. Also, I would like to know what good automatic car options are available under Rs 8 to 9 lakh. Thank you.

The Maruti Suzuki XL6 is a more premium version of the Ertiga, and it is based on the same platform. However, the XL6 is a 6-seater, thus consider between the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga or the Renault Triber, both of which are 7-seaters.The Renault Triber is a sub-4m MPV, though, so while it is more affordable, it is smaller than the Ertiga, and the 1.0 litre engine is not powerful, especially so when fully loaded.As for your query about a good automatic car under Rs 9 lakh, you can consider the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, or if you would like an SUV body style, the Nissan Magnite would be a good choice.

I own a 2020 Renault Triber, which is currently in good condition and has been driven for 48,000 kilometres. I would like your advice on the optimal time to sell this vehicle. Additionally, when considering a replacement, should I continue with the Renault Triber as a 7-seater option, or would you recommend a different model? I am asking because I have the perception that it may be prudent to use a car for no more than five years before exchanging it for a new one. Please guide

There are multiple schools of thought - some people may want to keep the car for the longest time possible, some might want to replace it every few years, and some might want to replace it every year. Hence, there is no right or wrong time to sell your vehicle.If there is a car you're lusting after, or if minor niggling issues keep cropping up with your Renault Triber, then it certainly makes sense to replace it immediately. However, if the car is serving you well without any issues, you may hold on to it for a few more years. Interestingly, the resale value of a vehicle falls the steepest in the first two years, after which its residual value will reduce gradually.So the difference in resale value at the end of five years and seven/eight years won't be drastic if the car is looked after well. We'd advise you to sell it if you are ready to upgrade to maybe a Maruti Suzuki Ertiga/XL6 or Kia Carens Clavis.
