Renault Trucks Unveils 2023 Electric Transporters: Game-Changer for LCV Market
Renault Trucks, a German subsidiary of the international Volvo Group, is set to revolutionise the light commercial vehicle market with its upcoming generation of full-electric transporters. The new models, slated for launch in 2023, promise to match the performance and payload of their diesel counterparts.
The new Renault Trafic and Master models will feature advanced digital instruments, driver assistance systems, and a central 10-inch display with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. These innovations aim to enhance driver experience and safety.
The electric Renault Master and Trafic will offer similar charging options and payloads to their diesel counterparts. The E-Tech versions of both models will be distributed by Renault and Volvo Trucks, further expanding their reach in the news.
The electric successor to the Renault Trafic, produced by Renault's subsidiary Ampere, is expected to be the first model under 20,000 euros from Ampere and will hit the market around 2026. This affordable option is set to make electric vehicles more accessible to businesses and individuals alike.
The Renault Trafic's electric version (E-Tech) starts at €57,715, equipped with a 52 kWh battery and capable of charging up to 50 kW at a DC fast charger. It offers a maximum range of around 300 kilometers. The Renault Master's fourth generation, also available in an electric version (E-Tech), starts at €61,630 with 105 kW of power. The E-Master, with an 87 kWh battery, can achieve ranges of 350 to 410 kilometers and charge at up to 22 kW at an AC charging station overnight.
Renault Trucks' commitment to electric vehicles is evident in its upcoming generation of full-electric transporters. With competitive pricing, impressive ranges, and advanced features, these new models promise to be game-changers in the light commercial vehicle market.
