Renault Trucks has rolled out significant enhancements to its heavy-duty vehicle line-up: the Renault Trucks T, T High, C, and K, promising an improvement in safety and comfort. These updates include revamped cab interiors, advanced driver assistance technology, and electric versions dubbed the Renault Trucks E-Tech T & C.
Interestingly enough, the company has introduced a 12-inch adjustable main digital display complemented by a multifunction touchscreen that features an Android Automobile interface. For trucks, this may be a big thing, allowing drivers to access various applications and functions that are considered basic in a family sedan. However, the 2024 Renault Trucks line includes advanced driver assistance technology, with radars and cameras fitted around the vehicle. For further coverage, an option to add up to five cameras for monitoring the vehicle’s surroundings is available. The digitization of the cabin, and the displays are part of this overall package to enhance the safety of the trucks.
The vehicles are now equipped with a three-direction adjustable steering column. This addition lets drivers find a suitable driving position based on their body shape, assignment constraints, and personal preferences. The adjustment can be made via a foot-operated control, with both hands remaining on the steering wheel for safety. The trucks also include automatic tyre pressure level alerts for the truck and trailer, a speeding alert system, and an optional driver airbag combined with a seatbelt pre-tensioner.
As for other features, truckers have on offer a range of options for the interior, including leather or textile seats and different dashboard styles, with a distinctive blue and red finish available for the E-Tech models.
