Renault Triber Retested By Global NCAP: Scores Just 2 Stars

The Renault Triber has been re-evaluated by the Global NCAP for the South African market, and the Made-in-India MPV has received a disappointing 2-star safety rating in both Adult and Child Occupant Protection. Previously, the Triber was tested in 2021 under less stringent standards and earned a commendable 4-star rating.
