Renault plans more launches in India to get back market share
Renault in India is aiming to claw back market share that it lost post Covid with plans to launch several products in the country over the next two years and has kicked off the process with the refreshed multipurpose vehicle Triber, its first launch in around four years.
The upgraded sub-4 metre Triber is priced competitively at ₹6.29 lakh (ex-showroom) for the base version, going up to ₹8.64 lakh at the upper end. The ‘all-new Triber’ is expected to boost the sales of the vehicle that was originally launched six years ago and has sold over two lakh units so far.
The French automaker, which sold a little over 48,000 units in India in 2024, has a market share under 1 per cent in the country, down from nearly 3 per cent prior to the pandemic.
“Now we are in the mode of rising and this is the first product which you see,” Venkatram Mamillapalle, Managing Director, Renault India, said during a media briefing. “There will be four products during the next two years,” he said.
Renault is in the process of buying out its joint venture partner Nissan in the Chennai plant and getting to full capacity in its attempt to ramp up presence in the world’s third largest car market. The plant is running at half capacity now.
Its current portfolio in India includes the small car Kwid, compact SUV Kiger and the 7-seater Triber.
Compact and mid-sized SUVs will be launched soon in India, said Mamillapalle.
The company has no immediate plans to launch electric vehicles in the country and is waiting for the market to mature as well as the regulations to stabilise. It is looking at hybrid vehicles as a more feasible option.
