Renault Triber Turbo CNG: What to Expect from Its Engine, Twin Tanks and Price?
Renault is set to offer a Turbo CNG version of its Triber model to its portfolio. The combination of a Turbo engine with a twin-cylinder CNG system fitted beneath the car is a big positive for families in India, providing a good blend of power, economy and space.
With this new CNG model, Renault has solved one of the main criticisms of CNG cars: the encroachment of CNG tanks in the luggage space.
Renault Triber Turbo CNG Expected Launch Date
Previously, Renault hinted at a launch for their CNG technology in September 2026. However, as of November 2026, Renault hasn’t officially stated the launch date of the CNG model.
Due to the advancements and tests, the car is expected to be released to the Indian market in late 2026 or early 2027. Again, this is an expectation and is not a formal announcement.
For now, on September 28th 2026, Renault Triber Turbo petrol was released with a price starting from Rs 7.84 lakh (ex-showroom).
Engine and Performance
The soon-to-be-released Triber Turbo CNG is expected to come with a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder HR10 petrol turbo engine. When it comes to petrol engines, it puts out 100 horsepower and 180 Newton-meters of torque and mates with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
More torque should improve the car's performance when out on the open road. It should improve passing as well as the overall drivability with multiple passengers on board. However, the exact output figures when running in CNG mode haven't been shared.
Underbody Twin CNG Tanks
The biggest selling point will be the twin CNG tanks that will come from the factory. Unlike current CNG setups where the tanks have to be placed in the luggage space, in this new model the tanks will be placed below the floor.
This arrangement should help preserve luggage-carrying capacity while retaining the Triber's practical seven-seat configuration.
Renault's updated RGEP platform has reportedly been engineered to accommodate this setup. The Turbo model also replaces the underbody spare wheel with a tyre inflator and puncture repair kit.
Features and Expected Price
The upcoming CNG variant is expected to retain the updated Triber's design and features, including an 8-inch touchscreen, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, automatic climate control, wireless smartphone connectivity and rear AC vents.
Safety equipment is expected to include six airbags, ABS with EBD and electronic stability control.
The existing Triber Turbo petrol costs Rs 7.84 lakh to Rs 8.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The Turbo CNG version is expected to carry a premium, although its official pricing remains unannounced.
Conclusion
The Renault Triber Turbo CNG could offer an interesting combination of performance, fuel economy and seven-seat practicality. Its underbody twin-cylinder arrangement may prove especially useful for families who want CNG efficiency without sacrificing boot space. Competitive pricing and real-world mileage will determine its success in the Indian market.
