Renault South Africa has launched the Triber Express III, the third generation of its light commercial vehicle based on the passenger Triber platform.
What is it?
The Triber Express III sits in the compact LCV segment, aimed at small businesses, urban delivery operators and fleet users who need a practical load carrier without the bulk of a traditional panel van.
It occupies useful ground between a car-derived van and a larger commercial vehicle, offering a 1 500-litre load area and a 542kg payload. Rear side doors ease loading and unloading in confined urban spaces.
Interior:
The cargo area is designed for straightforward organisation, with a locally produced internal storage cage fitted as standard. The driver's cab features a dual-tone interior, an 8-inch floating touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a fully digital instrument cluster.
Air conditioning, electric power steering and a reversing camera are all included. Dual front airbags, ABS with Electronic Brake Distribution and a reinforced safety cell round out the standard specification.
Exterior:
The Triber Express III is built on Renault's global Triber passenger platform, adapted for commercial use. It carries 182mm of ground clearance, SUV-style skid plates and projector headlamps. Roof rails are fitted as standard, and an optional locally manufactured roof rack system is available, adding practical carrying capacity above the roofline without altering the overall footprint.
Engine:
A 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine produces 53kW and 96Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox.
Price:
Triber Express III 1.0L (R249 999) and the Triber Express III 1.0L with roof rack (R261 999).
