Pros Cons of Renault Triber

Pros

  • Most affordable seven-seater in India
  • Good ride quality over broken roads
  • Flexible modular third-row seating
  • Six airbags are standard across the range
  • Strong value-for-money positioning

Cons

  • Underpowered with full passenger load
  • The AMT gearbox feels slow
  • No turbo or diesel option
  • The third row is tight for adults
  • Interior plastics feel basic

Verdict

Renault Triber is one of the most intelligently packaged vehicles in the Indian car market. It does not attempt to be powerful, sporty, or overtly premium. Instead, it focuses on space, affordability, and ride comfort.

Bilal Firfiray summed it up well in his review when he suggested:

“While Renault lost out on the opportunity to include a stronger engine, the Triber still offers what many Indian families really need: flexibility on a budget.”

If your priority is a seven-seater that is practical and easy to maintain without stretching your finances, the Triber makes a strong case. However, if highway performance as well as stronger power engine options are non-negotiable, then larger MPVs will serve you better.

Pros Cons of Kia Seltos

Pros

  • The turbo-petrol engine is incredibly fast
  • A solid, up-to-date safety suite
  • The dual 12.3-inch screens
  • Still offers a proper diesel engine

Cons

  • Stiff suspension on broken city roads
  • The turbo-petrol engine has lower fuel economy
  • Top-spec GTX and X-Line variants are very expensive
  • Rear headroom is slightly tight for tall passengers

Verdict

The Kia Seltos is one apt car that offers a powertrain combination for literally every type of buyer, whether you want cheap daily commutes with the NA petrol, high mileage with the diesel, or aggressive speed with the turbo-petrol. Kia also listened to the consumer base and fixed its biggest flaw by securing a five-star crash safety rating. The only real downside is the firm ride quality over bad roads. But if you can live with feeling a few bumps in the city, the Kia Seltos gets most of the other driving essentials right.

As Seshan concludes,

“The new-gen Seltos raises the bar. It’s bolder and more distinctive.”
