New engine, new features
Latest generation of Renault Trucks T now available to order
Renault Trucks launches the T 2019 model version on the market. The new Euro VI Stage D emission standard engine reduces fuel consumption by three percent compared to the previous generation of engines. In addition, the T 2019 is equipped with new additional functions that improve driving comfort and life on board.
The 2019 version of the Renault Trucks T and T High models are now equipped with the Euro VI Stage D emissions standard in both the 13 and 11-liter engine versions. This next stage of the emissions regulations comes into force on September 1, 2019. The vehicles will also be equipped with a latest-generation exhaust gas purification system. This guarantees a longer service life thanks to the use of new materials. An improved AdBlue sensor has also been integrated and the seventh injection nozzle in the exhaust tract has been removed.
The Renault Trucks T 2019 is equipped with the latest generation of the Optivision predictive cruise control system. This uses the route profile to adapt the shift strategy. A new feature is that the map data is stored directly in the vehicle. The driver therefore enjoys greater convenience, as the system can always work, even where no GPS signal is available. Thanks to more precise route information, driving behavior can be better adapted and fuel consumption further reduced.
New parameters have also been integrated into the Eco Cruise Control adaptive cruise control, which ensure lower fuel consumption. The combination of these improvements results in a three percent reduction in fuel consumption compared to the previous generation of vehicles. The 2019 Renault Trucks T and T High versions are available to order now.
