After revealing the vehicle at the Auto Expo 2020, Renault has finally launched the Triber AMT in India. The French carmaker has started accepting bookings for the Triber Easy-R AMT. It will be available in three trims – RXL, RXT and RXZ at a price difference of INR 40,000 above the respective manual versions, with a starting price of INR 6.18 Lakh.
Launched almost a year ago, the Triber was specifically designed keeping in mind opportunities for innovative products in the Indian market. It continues to offer an unmatched value proposition to customers looking at an affordable vehicle with space for more than five. The Triber is an excellent option for consumers looking for a B-segment MPV with lots of space and which is also fuel-efficient with attractive interiors and boasts of many modern and practical features.
With the EASY-R AMT option, Renault aims to take forward the key USPs of the Triber being a flexible, attractive & affordable offering. With this new gearless addition, the Triber now offers a convenient option for those who drive mostly within the city. Upon the launch, Venkatram Mamillapalle, Country CEO & Managing Director, Renault India Operations said, “With the AMT version of Triber, we will further enhance the USPs of the MPV – Flexible, Attractive & Affordable. Looking at the evolving customer preferences, the AMT technology is becoming a popular choice across segments and we are happy to build on our portfolio with the Renault Triber EASY-R AMT. It is very motivating to see the outstanding response from customers and today we will take another step forward in the Triber journey with this launch.”
