Explained: Why the Renault Triber does not get a turbo petrol engine
Renault India recently introduced the Triber facelift, bringing comprehensive upgrades to the subcompact SUV. Potential buyers were anticipating a more powerful turbo petrol engine for the Triber this time. However, Renault did not bring any mechanical upgrades to the car, and it now appears the Triber won't be getting one either. Potential buyers were anticipating a more powerful turbo petrol engine on the Renault Triber facelift. However, there are no mechanical upgrades to the car, and it now appears the Triber won't be getting one either. Why The Renault Triber Does Not Get A Turbo Petrol Engine Speaking to the media on the sidelines of the Renault Triber facelift launch, Venkatram Mamillapalle, Managing Director, Renault India, explained why the Triber can't have the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine from the Kiger. Turns out the engine bay on the Triber has been designed to be compact enough to accommodate the smallest engine possible. This was done specifically to maximise cabin space, which is the USP of the vehicle.

Renault does offer a more powerful turbo petrol unit on the Kiger SUV The Renault Triber is the only three-row offering in the sub-4-metre segment, and to achieve the same, the automaker had to resort to clever engineering to ensure a larger cabin. In order to accommodate a turbo petrol motor, Renault will have to redesign the engine bay, compromising on cabin space, negating the whole point of the subcompact MPV. The cost of re-engineering the engine bay and homologating the same would be another deterrent for Renault India, given the Triber's cost-conscious pricing. For those expecting a more powerful Triber, this would be disappointing news. The power from the motor has been the Achilles heel of the MPV, especially with the AMT unit. However, most buyers looking at the Triber prioritise space and the extra seats over performance. The model gets generous legroom in the second row, thanks to its tall stance, while the third row is best suited for children. Moreover, the third row seats are completely removable, liberating a massive boot capacity of 625 litres, which can be further expanded with the foldable second row. The Renault Triber facelift gets a redesigned front as well as rear, along with a host of new features 2025 Renault Triber Facelift: What's New The 2025 Renault Triber facelift has received extensive changes. This includes the restyled front and rear sporting a new grille, LED headlamps with DRLs, new bumpers, and a new taillight cluster. The cabin gets a revised dashboard with a new 8-inch touchscreen infotainment, a 7-inch digital instrument console, black and white fabric upholstery, and more. The MPV packs more features, including wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, six airbags, TPMS, front parking sensors, cruise control, and more.

Renault Group's H1 2025 sales up 1.3% amid electrification push
Renault Group recorded a modest 1.3 per cent year-on-year growth in global vehicle sales for the first half of 2025, selling a total of 1,169,773 units, as the company pushed ahead with its electrification strategy in the face of challenging market conditions in Europe and beyond. The Renault brand led the Group's performance, selling 808,413 vehicles globally — up 2.7 per cent compared to H1 2024. This growth was primarily fuelled by a strong showing outside Europe, where sales surged 16.3 per cent. Key growth markets included South Korea (up 150 per cent), Morocco (up 48 per cent), and Latin America, where Argentina saw a remarkable 96.7 per cent jump. The Grand Koleos and Kardian models played a critical role in this growth. The group has five core brands under its fold: Renault, Dacia, Alpine, Mobilize, and LADA. In Europe, Renault's passenger car sales rose by 8.4 per cent, defying a 1 per cent decline in the overall market. The Clio emerged as the best-selling vehicle across all channels, helping Renault climb to second place in European sales rankings. However, the Group's light commercial vehicle (LCV) performance faced headwinds. Renault's LCV sales dropped 22.8 per cent globally and 29 per cent in Europe, impacted by the end of the Renault Express lifecycle and the incomplete rollout of the new Master range. Dacia's global sales dipped slightly by 0.7 per cent to 356,084 units, primarily due to the rebranding of Duster in Turkey. However, Dacia Sandero maintained its stronghold as Europe's best-selling model to retail customers, while Duster remained the top SUV among private buyers. Alpine delivered a standout performance with sales nearly doubling to 5,015 units (+84.6 per cent), driven by the success of the A290 electric city car, crowned Car of the Year 2025. Renault's EV sales The Group's electrification strategy showed strong momentum. Electrified vehicles now account for 44 per cent of Renault Group's total sales, including 12.3 per cent fully electric models. Renault's electric vehicle sales grew 57 per cent, with the Renault 5 E-Tech emerging as Europe's best-selling B-segment EV. Hybrid sales also surged, with hybrid powertrains comprising over 41 per cent of Renault's passenger car sales. Looking ahead, Renault Group plans to launch seven new models in 2025, including the Renault 4 E-Tech, Dacia Bigster, Alpine A390, and the international Boreal. Two facelifts — Austral and Espace — and continued expansion of electric and hybrid offerings are also expected to bolster the Group's performance in the second half of the year.

MotoGP in India dropped from 2026 calendar: All you need to know
Image Courtesy: X/MotoGP. India's wait to host a MotoGP race just got longer. The provisional 2026 calendar released by Dorna Sports , the commercial rights holder of MotoGP, does not feature the Indian Grand Prix . This notable absence stretches the event's hiatus to at least three consecutive years. India last hosted a MotoGP round in 2023 at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC) in Greater Noida. Despite being part of the 2024 calendar, the race was cancelled and rescheduled to March 2025, citing extreme weather conditions experienced during the inaugural event. Later, it was pushed to 2026 due to 'operational circumstances.' But now, even that revised timeline appears in doubt. MotoGP 2026 Calendar. (Image: MotoGP/X). The Buddh International Circuit, once touted as a fresh addition to the global racing map, now finds itself in limbo. The recent exclusion raises fresh concerns about the long-term viability of MotoGP in India , despite a three-year agreement between Dorna and the Uttar Pradesh government to host races from 2025 through 2027. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Kia Carens Clavis first drive review: Game-Changer for electric MPVs? | TOI Auto The cancellation of the 2024 race was officially attributed to harsh weather conditions in the National Capital Region.

With India now absent from the MotoGP calendar for 2024, 2025, and potentially even 2026, the question remains: when, or even if, the premier two-wheeled racing championship will return to the country.
