Renault Kiger SUV and Renault Triber MPV

Renault’s Kiger and Triber are among top cars in SA

South Africa’s car market is dominated by SUVs. South Africans love the style and flexibility, the practical dimensions, and the ability to fit in at the mall or out on the country roads.

Yet in this crowded space, two new Renault SUVs are solidly in the top ten seller list.
