Renault Trucks Press Release / September 10, 2015

Renault Trucks will be displaying the new additions to its range of firefighting vehicles during the 122nd French Firefighters’ National Convention, to be held in Agen from 23 to 26 September 2015.

Leader on the French market for rescue and firefighting vehicles with a market share of 72.3%, Renault Trucks will be exhibiting a broad selection from its Fire and Rescue offering: vehicles from 2.8 to 32 tonne featuring outstanding maneuverability which enables firefighters to reach the site of emergency situations under all circumstances in urban and rural areas, as well as in hard to access locations.

The new features Renault Trucks is offering on this range include new chassis layouts for the Fire Tenders. These free up space along the left and right side members, meeting firefighters’ needs by significantly increasing storage space for their equipment.

Visitors will also be able to see the new Renault Trucks K crew cab version, a model available in XL (6 seats) and XXL (8 seats) versions.

Finally, Renault Trucks will also be showing a Renault Master Public Transport with a new Euro 6 engine in a four-wheel-drive version.

Five vehicles will be on display:
- Renault Trucks D Cab 2,1m 4x2 Fire tender
- Renault Trucks D Cab 2,1m 4x4 Forest Fire Tender
- Renault Trucks D Cab 2,1m 4x4 Rural Fire Tender
- Renault Trucks K 6x6 XL crew cab (6 seats)
- Renault Master 4x4 Public Transport

Vehicles in the Renault Trucks Fire and Rescue range of between 2.8 and 32 t. meet firefighters’ needs wherever they have to operate, whether in urban or rural contexts.

The Renault Master, Renault Maxity, Renault Trucks D 2m and 2.1m cab, with their spacious interior volumes and excellent manoeuvrability, are used for rescue operations in urban environments.

In its 4x4 version, the D Cab 2.1m can operate in rural or forest environments, backed up when necessary by vehicles from the C and K ranges. Their obstacle clearing capacity, high ground clearance and outstanding pulling power enable them to reach the most hard to access locations.

Finally, using the Bodybuilder tool, its services and Internet portal, Renault Trucks provides an exclusive service for bodybuilders, assisting them with the complex electronic parameter setting operations these vehicles require.
