Renault Trucks is adding a new light commercial vehicle to its offering, the Renault Trucks E-Tech Trafic, which will go on sale in 2023 in the medium-sized van segment. The Renault Trucks E-Tech Trafic is designed for city driving.

Medium-sized and easy to manoeuvre, its most compact version can be driven into covered urban car parks and standard car parking spaces. To meet the needs of all delivery professionals and contractors, the van is available in a range of configurations: three panel van versions (L1H1, L2H1, L2H2), two double cab panel van versions (L1H1 and L2H1) and a flatbed version. In its panel van version, the Renault Trucks E-Tech Trafic offers a load volume ranging from 5.8 to 8.9 m3 and a load length of up to 4.15 m. The comfortable 1,898 mm interior height of the H2 version is sufficient to stand upright in the load area.
