Renault Triber has emerged as one of the safest cars in India after it scored four stars in Global NCAP crash tests
The Renault Triber MPV fared satisfactorily as far as protection offered to adult occupant driver and passenger is concerned.
Renault Triber did not do as well in child safety test where it showed hints of major injuries in case of an impact.
Triber from Renault starts at ₹5.30 lakh (ex showroom).
The Renault Triber that was put to test had most basic safety specifications with just two airbags. According to the global vehicle safety watchdog, the Triber MPV 'showed significant improvements from previous Renault models' tested by Global NCAP
.
Alejandro Furas, Secretary General of Global NCAP, said, "Renault has significantly improved adult occupant protection performance in frontal crashes compared with our 2016 tests on the Kwid. The Triber sets a strong baseline for the manufacturer, and we encourage Renault to maintain this important progress as a minimum with the goal of achieving 5 star levels of safety."
Venkatram Mamillapalle, CEO & Managing Director at Renault India Operations, said, "Safety is of paramount importance for Renault and our products meet and exceed the requisite safety standards set by Indian Regulatory Authorities. An outcome of a joint project between Renault teams in India and France, Renault Triber has already established itself as a successful product and has seen tremendous acceptance amongst a wide set of car buyers. This is a proud moment for Renault in India, as Triber was conceived, developed and produced in India, for Indian customers first, before we took it to the world. The 4-star adult safety rating by Global NCAP for Triber reiterates our commitment towards safety."
