2025 Renault Triber Launched in India, A Complete Redesign of Features and Design
The new Triber, which proudly sports the company's new logo, is a significant milestone as it is the first product to be released under Renault's revolutionary 'renault. rethink.' brand strategy. With a bold new grille, a sculpted hood, a new bumper, and sleek LED projector headlamps with integrated LED DRLs and new LED fog lamps, the exterior has undergone a complete redesign. A new skid plate, updated LED taillamps, a redesigned bumper, and a chic taillamp connecting embellisher complete the rear's contemporary appearance.
The interior has been completely redesigned, featuring a sleek dual-tone finish and a completely new dashboard layout. An 8-inch floating touchscreen display that supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto seamlessly integrates with this. New seat upholstery, a modern LED instrument cluster, LED cabin lighting, and blacked-out door handles are additional interior improvements that add to the more upscale atmosphere.
Since safety has always been a top priority, the new Triber now comes with five new safety features, including a segment-first front parking sensor and six airbags as standard on all models. Together with ESP, TPMS, and EBD with Brake Assist, these additions bring the total number of standard safety features to 21.
The Triber's best-in-class modular seating, which includes third-row Easy-Fix seats that can be configured as 5, 6, or 7 seats, is in keeping with its 'rethink space' philosophy. A segment-leading boot space of up to 625 liters complements this adaptability.
With ex-showroom prices ranging from INR 6.29 Lakhs to INR 9.16 Lakhs, the All-New Triber comes in four different variants: Authentic, Evolution, Techno, and Emotion. All Renault dealerships opened for reservations today.
Mr. Venkatram Mamillapalle, Managing Director of Renault India, underscored the launch's importance, stating, 'India remains a cornerstone of Renault's global strategy. This model is also the first in India to proudly feature Renault's new brand logo, symbolizing the company's bold, modern direction and deep alignment with Indian aspirations.' He added that the new Triber is over 90% localized, highlighting Renault's long-term commitment.
The engine in the All-New Triber gives it 72 PS at 6250 rpm and 96 Nm of torque at 3500 rpm. There are two types of transmissions: a 5-speed manual and an Easy-R AMT, which is only available on the top-of-the-line Emotion model. 2 The car comes with a standard 3-year warranty that can be extended to 7 years. It can also be fitted with government-approved CNG retrofitment kits that come with a 3-year warranty. 3 Renault already has 1.84 lakh customers in India and exports to more than a dozen other countries. The All-New Triber will help the company grow in India.

Five-pillar plan to make India self-reliant in rare earth magnet production
A report by advisory firm Primus Partners has outlined a comprehensive five-pillar blueprint to localise the production of rare earth magnets in India, aiming to secure the country's electric vehicle (EV) future and reduce its near-total dependence on Chinese imports. Titled "From Extraction to Innovation: A Blueprint for Enhancing Rare Earth Magnet Ecosystem in India's EV Roadmap", the report proposes a strategy spanning from upstream mineral extraction to downstream magnet manufacturing, critical for EVs, wind turbines, and defence technologies. The five pillars of the proposed strategy are market assurance. It suggested government-backed price guarantees and long-term offtake agreements with sectors like auto, defence, and renewables to de-risk investments and counter global neodymium price volatility. It suggested establishing integrated pilot-scale clusters in mineral-rich states such as Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu, and identifying three industrial champions to drive rapid scale-up in magnet production. It called for launching a National Rare Earth Innovation Hub to boost R&D in recycling, magnet efficiency, and process technology. Recycling could supply up to 40 kt of rare earth magnets' global demand by 2030. Further, it asked for the formation of a Magnet Ecosystem Coordination Cell to align ministries, fast-track clearances, and track progress within a 3-5 year strategic window. Over 90 per cent of India's magnet imports come from China, which controls 92 per cent of global magnet manufacturing. Recent export restrictions and customs delays in China disrupted supply chains for Indian companies, including leading auto component makers. Davinder Sandhu, Co-Founder and Chairperson of Primus Partners, stated, "India has both the reserves and the demand. Yet despite holding the 5th largest rare earth reserves, we account for less than 1 per cent of global magnet production. The INR 34,300 crore outlay under the Critical Minerals Mission is a strong start, but we can't afford to remain resource-rich and capacity-poor." "China spent decades building its dominance; India doesn't have that luxury. We must compress that journey through bold investments in technology, fast-tracked clearances, and strong industry-research partnerships to scale extraction, processing, and recycling." According to Nikhil Dhaka, Vice President, "As the sustainable mobility sector accelerates, we need a national effort to de-risk EV manufacturing at its core. Without urgent localisation, technology innovation, faster approvals, and strong private-sector partnerships, every vehicle we build will carry the same import dependence we face today." China's overwhelming control of global rare earth processing - commanding over 90 per cent of the world's magnet production capacity - has created significant vulnerabilities for industries worldwide. These materials are critical across multiple sectors, including automobiles, home appliances, and clean energy systems. Beyond China, there are only a few alternative suppliers of critical minerals. The central government, on its part, has earmarked Rs 1,345 crore to incentivise rare earth magnets production in India. (ANI)

Exicom Q1 FY26: Navigating a Soft Quarter with Clear Momentum for the Road Ahead
GURUGRAM, India, Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Exicom Tele-Systems Limited (NSE: EXICOM), one of India's leading EV charging and critical power solutions manufacturers, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of FY26, reporting a consolidated revenue of INR 205.3 Crore, an EBITDA margin of –18.8% and adjusted PAT of INR –71.1 crore. On a standalone basis, the company recorded an adjusted PAT of INR 1.1 Crore. While revenue growth this quarter was measured, Exicom entered the second quarter of FY26 with a robust order book exceeding INR 1,500 Crore. "We recognize that this quarter's performance has not met expectations, but it also does not reflect the full potential of the company or the strength of our pipeline. We are seeing visible momentum and clear signs of progress. In India, the steady rise in EV sales points to a stronger outlook for our charging business, and with Bharat Net deliveries now underway, we expect increased revenue contributions from Q2 onwards. Tritium has been a strategic investment for us to build global presence and revenue streams. Although the business is taking longer to turn around, there are positive lead indicators including growing customer confidence in its new portfolio," said Anant Nahata, Managing Director and CEO, Exicom. Strategic Highlights and Business Updates EVSE Business India's four-wheeler EV market gathered momentum, with monthly sales topping ~13,000 units for four consecutive months. Supportive policies are expected to further lift demand ahead of the festive season, creating the strongest tailwinds we have seen in recent quarters. This is already reflecting in our business, with Harmony Direct 2.0, our advanced DC fast charger launched last quarter, building a robust pipeline. Five out of the top 8 EV customers have already transitioned fully to this differentiated product. On the home charging front, Exicom's Spin Air continued to gain traction through ecommerce and B2B channels, with the company delivering over 15000 chargers across geographies. A key highlight was robust year-on -year growth in Southeast Asia sales across four new customers. Exicom also signed its first-ever framework agreement with one of SEA's largest clean energy players, with an expected deal value of nearly USD 6 million over the next 2 years. Tritium Update While Tritium's financial performance is yet to catch up, there are positive leading indicators, including improved customer satisfaction, rising service revenues and order pipeline. Customer adoption is also strengthening, with more than 700 Tritium chargers deployed across the US, Europe and ANZ since January this year. The company is also in advanced discussions with key industry players on some of the largest EV charging opportunities in the sector. The Tri-Flex DC fast charger, a key part of Tritium's global product strategy, has secured new customers, with the first deployment planned with a UK-based CPO later this year. Cutting cash losses is one of our top priorities. Alongside these efforts, we are deeply focused on cost optimization and accelerating revenue conversions. Critical Power Business The Critical Power segment achieved lower-than-expected revenue in Q1, largely owing to delays in key projects. Execution of the Bharat Net project, which had faced delays due to project-level approvals and monsoons, has now commenced and is set to start contributing to the topline from Q2 onwards. Some of the battery projects expected to be delivered in Q1 also got deferred to Q2. On a positive note, the business secured significant wins in the Middle East and Africa and is on track to achieve its highest-ever international revenue this year. Future outlook The upcoming milestone of Hyderabad manufacturing plant remains on track to start operations by October 2025. Talking about the ongoing financial year, Anant Nahata further added, "Although this quarter was not up to the mark, we remain confident on our efforts and growth trajectory. Strong industry tailwinds, a differentiated EVSE portfolio, and solid operational momentum in our telecom and critical power businesses position us strongly for what we expect to be a strong year for EVSE and a promising year for critical power. As a team, we are fully engaged and working with intent to deliver on the guidance shared in Q4 FY25. While we know there is work ahead, we believe we have the right foundations to achieve it. The strong shareholder support in our recent rights issue is an encouraging vote of confidence in our direction." About Exicom Exicom is one of India's leading EV charging and Critical Power solutions manufacturer, present across the entire EV charger value chain with a host of products across both AC & DC charger segments and is spear heading India's transition to sustainable transportation while ensuring the smooth functioning of critical infrastructure.
