RENAULT TRUCKS DEMONSTRATES BREADTH AND DEPTH OF CONSTRUCTION RANGE AT HILLHEAD 2022

Renault Trucks has announced its return to Hillhead 2022, Stand A8, with a line-up of three vehicles that showcases the breadth and depth of its highly-acclaimed construction range - a C460 8x4*4 Tridem, a T480 6x2 tractor unit with mini mid-lift, and a L4H2 Renault Trucks Master Red Edition with crew cab conversion. 

Renault Trucks offers a fully-integrated service for all sectors of the construction, quarrying and recycling industries, for both on and off-road applications. The show offers operators the ideal opportunity to discover more about the first-class service support from the Renault Trucks dealer network as well as view its new ‘Evolution’ range which features improved driving comfort, on-board environment, safety and productivity

Visitors to the Renault Trucks stand A8 will see a 32-tonne C460 8x4*4 Tridem with a PPG aluminium tipping body and EdBro tipping gear for aggregate applications, featuring Day cab including n/s vision window and with CLOCS-compliant safety systems. One of the most manoeuvrable vehicles on the market with a steerable axle capable of carrying up to 9 tonnes and a turning radius of up to 15% shorter than a standard 8x4, the C460 Tridem with retractable rear axle offers flexibility to access sites not always accessible by an 8 wheeler.  

The Renault Trucks C Tridem is powered by the DTI11 10.8 litre 6 cylinder in-line diesel engine, with common rail high pressure fuel injection, and overhead camshaft. 

A further draw to the Renault Trucks stand is a 13-litre T480 6x2 tractor unit with mini mid-lift, ideal for aggregate or liquid applications, with a factory-fitted PTO and wet kit. Fitted with smaller 17.5” wheels on the mid-lift axle, the Renault Trucks T MML is up to half a tonne lighter and offers significant payload advantages for cost-conscious operators in agricultural or quarry work.  

Additionally showcased on Stand A8 is a 4.5 tonne L4H2 Renault Trucks Master Red Edition with crew cab conversion by Minibus Options that seats six including driver, striking in black metallic pearlescent paintwork.  Equipped with twin tyres for heavy loads and towing, the rear wheel drive Master Red Edition offers improved off-road manoeuvrability for site work.  Performance comes from the efficient twin-turbo, 4-cylinder EVI diesel engine that delivers maximum power of 165hp at 3500 rpm, with maximum torque 380 Nm between 1500 and 2750 rpm, mated to a heavy duty 6 speed gearbox.  Spec’d for productivity and driver comfort, the Red Edition crew cab features driver’s seat with lumbar adjustment, passenger double seat with folding central seat backrest and fold-up shelf and additional under seat storage compartment.  

Throughout the Hillhead event, experts from Renault Trucks and local dealer JDS Trucks & Vans will be on hand to offer advice and detailed information on vehicles and enhanced transport solutions. 

Renault Trucks returns to Hillhead 2022 in Buxton, Derbyshire (21-23rd June), showcasing vehicles that highlight the breadth and depth of its highly-acclaimed construction range.
