The Renault Triber has long been known as one of India's most practical and affordable seven-seaters. Now, with its 2025 facelift, Renault has refreshed its appeal for urban families who want space, versatility and value in a single package.
First launched in 2019, the Triber became increasingly popular among budget-conscious buyers due to its flexible seating and easy-to-drive features. The latest update focuses on design changes, new features and a more refined cabin experience, while the tried and tested 1.0-litre petrol engine is mated to a 5-speed manual or EZ-R AMT gearbox.
But beyond what is visible on the brochure, the real question is how the Triber facelift performs in real-world conditions. To find out, HT Auto conducted a city fuel-efficiency test under everyday traffic scenarios, and the results paint a clear picture of its urban mileage.
What were the conditions for this test?
The test was conducted in four different cities, each of which represented different levels of traffic congestion, from slow-moving peak-hour traffic to relatively free-flowing stretches.
The test car was the 'Emotion' trim equipped with the EZ-R AMT transmission. The manual air-conditioner was left on throughout the drive, set to 'cool' with fan speed at level 1.
During testing, the car was driven at a maximum speed of 60 km/h, while the average speed for the overall journey was 15.9 km/h. The car covered a total distance of 70.3 km in a duration of 4 hours and 30 minutes.

What were the test results?
The Triber facelift returned fuel efficiency figures of 6 km/l, 7 km/l, 10 km/l and 14 km/l in four cities, depending on traffic density.
While lower figures were seen during heavy stop-and-go traffic, higher numbers came from smoother stretches with fewer stops. The average of these runs gives a real-world mileage of around 9.25 km/l. This is impressive for the AMT transmission, but not so much for the weak 1.0 petrol doing the job.
Despite these numbers, Triber remains one of the most accessible and versatile options for Indian families, offering space, comfort and ease of driving at a price that no rival can match.
