Renault Pushes Boundaries In Automotive Industry

Renault launched the Triber in 2020 and this 7-seater vehicle is positioned in the sub-4-metre segment. In fact, the Triber is the only proper 7-seater that comes under this category and the vehicle has received a very good response from the audience thanks to its packaging, space, features, and price.

Now, it has been learnt that Renault is developing a few more vehicles for the automotive market. The vehicles will be slotted in different price ranges and according to Renault, these new vehicles will carve out new segments. First up, the French automaker launched a new compact SUV - the Kiger. This SUV, based on the CMF-A platform, is a bit smaller than other compact SUVs like the Tata Nexon and Maruti Vitara Brezza.

The Renault Automotive company is also working on an electric version of the Kwid and it has been codenamed XBA-EV. The electric car will feature heavily localised components aiming for a competitive price in the market. Renault is also working on a new compact sedan which is likely to be based on the CMF-A platform as well.

This compact sedan will undercut the likes of the Maruti Dzire. The sedan has been codenamed LBA and it might be showcased at the 2022 Auto Expo. While the Kwid and Triber make use of a 1.0-litre, 3-cyl, NA petrol engine right now, you can expect Renault to introduce a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine for the HBC and eventually for the Triber too. The compact sedan could get a 1.0-litre engine too, but it remains to be seen whether Renault uses the turbo unit or not.
