Renault Trucks has launched the new Renault Trucks Master six-tonne rigid 6x2 low deck chassis cab.

It features both low cab and cargo entry, increased internal load dimensions and high payloads.

Renault Trucks says it is a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to the traditional 7.5 tonne 4x2 vehicle most used for urban and haulage operations.

It is available with either steel or four-bag rear air suspension and is designed for a wide variety of custom-built applications such as dry freight logistics, road traffic / cone management, equine transportation, car transporters and mini coaches looking for increased productivity and cost-effective solutions.

Payloads in excess of three tonnes are possible, depending on body fitted.

“The Renault Trucks Master six-tonne 6x2 chassis cab is one of our most exciting LCV product launches yet, taking the traditional 7.5-tonne sector head-on and broadening our appeal within the UK market for those seeking a more effective and environmentally-friendly solution,” says Grahame Neagus, head of LCV at Renault Trucks UK.

Tailored to suit a wide variety of body styles, the front-wheel-drive Master can be built with various rear overhangs to suit the application.
