Renault India has made a major and successful announcement under its ‘futureReady’ strategy. If you’re looking for a rugged vehicle in 2026 that boasts fuel efficiency and speed that will make its mark on the roads, the new Renault Kwid, Triber, and Kiger will be a perfect choice.

With the new RGEP (Renault Group Entry Platform), officially unveiled on April 16, 2026, the company has not only resolutely broken the old boundaries of these vehicles, but has also seamlessly integrated turbo-petrol engines and the unique Dual-Cylinder CNG technology. This new platform is also poised to successfully adopt future hybrid and electric powertrains, further strengthening Renault’s market position.

Renault’s new RGEP platform is firmly replacing the older CMF-A architecture, setting a unique standard for safety and strength. This platform is so versatile and flexible that it effectively supports all three body styles: hatchback, SUV, and MPV, reducing manufacturing costs.

Its strongest feature is its over 90% localization, which means Indian customers will benefit from both robust durability and a precise and affordable price. This new foundation has also dramatically increased cabin space, delivering a truly luxurious and robust experience for passengers.

With the new platform, Renault has precisely fitted the dual-cylinder CNG kit under the floor, ensuring the Triber’s third-row utility is maintained and providing ample boot space.

The Kiger now becomes India’s second successful compact SUV, after the Tata Nexon, to offer a robust factory-fitted CNG option with a turbocharged engine.

The new electronic architecture successfully integrates a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless charging, and innovative connected car features, making it a smart machine.
