Which light commercial vehicle should you choose for deliveries?

Renault Trucks Master Red EDITION, available as a van, platform cab or chassis cab  depending on your application, has been designed to make the daily life of drivers in the urban environment easier and to ensure the profitability of deliveries. Discover the benefits. 

In terms of engines, you can choose from 7 diesel engines between 110 and 180 hp. If your vehicles cover lower mileage for each round trip, or if you need to access LEZ (low-emissions zones), you can opt for Renault Trucks Master E-Tech 100% electric which provides an operating range of 120 km and offers similar performance to diesel variants. 

The 150 and 180 hp front-wheel drive vans can also be equipped with the AMT (automated manual transmission). This automates the clutch engagement, disengagement and gear shifting functions. Its operation can be automatic or manual providing a real benefit in town, because it reduces fuel consumption by optimising gear shifts to avoid excessively low or high engine speeds and smoothing out variations in engine speed. This is also an advantage on the road because the driver can switch the AMT to manual mode at any time to benefit from greater pick-up when overtaking, for example. Furthermore, the AMT is proactive and adapts to the topography of the road, the driving mode and the driver's reactions (for emergency braking, for example). 

As industry leaders, we have formed close partnerships with many bodybuilders. This means that whether a platform cab or chassis-cab variant, a Renault Trucks Master can be adapted fully to your activity to make your daily life easier.

Your drivers are bound by considerable constraints, in particular when they are working in town. Renault Trucks Master has the technology to enhance driver safety in a constricted environment. In terms of active safety, Renault Trucks Master is equipped with ESP stability control as standard and AEBS active emergency brake assist. It may also be equipped with a lane-keep assistance system (including in the event of strong winds), hill start assist and front and rear parking assistance cameras and sensors. 

In terms of passive safety, one of the main problems encountered when making deliveries in town are blind spots. The Renault Trucks Master interior rear-view mirror is of the "wide-angle" type to circumvent this issue. All rear-view mirrors may also be equipped with a "blind spot warning" that lights up to warn the driver of objects or persons situated in the blind spots. Finally, Renault Trucks Master is highly manoeuvrable thanks to its reduced overall width and turning radius that is one of the best on the market.
