Renault Trucks has, today, announced the further expansion of its Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) offering, with the launch of three new specifications in its Trafic range; The Renault Trucks Trafic Red EDITION Caged Dropside, the Renault Trucks Trafic Red EDITION CHILLER, and the Renault Trucks Trafic Red EXCLUSIVE Roadtrip.

The three new LCV vehicles all benefit from Renault Trucks’ 35-year experience in the conversion marketplace, its century-long expertise in HGVs, together with the density of its commercial vehicle distribution and repair dealer network.

 

1)         Renault Trucks Trafic Red EDITION Caged Dropside

With a typical payload of 850kgs with caged side or 950kgs without, the new Trafic Caged Dropside is based on the Renault Trucks Trafic Red EDITION Platform Cab. It is available as either a Caged Dropside body (shown here) or in a standard Dropside body and features an L2 wheelbase, Single H1 cab, Euro 6 Step E 150ps engine and 6-speed manual gearbox.
