RENAULT TRUCKS MASTER Z.E. WINS GREEN VAN OF THE YEAR

The all-electric Renault Trucks Master Z.E. has won Green Van of the Year 2019 at the inaugural Great British Fleet Awards held on 24 January at the Novotel London West.

Created to recognise innovation and talent in the fleet industry, and the products and services which support operators running safer, greener, more cost effective fleets, the awards were judged by Fleet World’s expert panel of editors. 

In presenting Renault Trucks with the Green Van of the Year award, judges praised the Master Z.E’s environmental credentials, and in particular noted the wide range of specialist vehicles in full electric Master Z.E. form, from chilled distribution to minibuses and a cherry picker, available in drive-away options from the manufacturer’s Ready for Business range.

Grahame Neagus, Head of LCV at Renault Trucks UK and Ireland, said: “It is a privilege to accept this award on behalf of Renault Trucks, which recognises the importance of electromobility in our sustainable urban transport strategy.  The Renault Trucks Master Z.E. is the perfect solution for urban environments, and is not only ideally suited for ‘last-mile’ deliveries, but as the judging panel has also noted, with our pre-bodied Ready for Business range, we are also catering for other applications carrying out essential operations in our towns and cities.”

The Renault Trucks Master Z.E. belongs to the new family of all-electric commercial vehicle solutions up to 26-tonnes GVW, which also features the Renault Trucks D Z.E and the Renault Trucks D Wide Z.E.
