Renault Trucks,
LONG DISTANCE
HAULAGE
Haulage demands reveal two main needs:
• Organised transport, built around repetitive
logistic flow
• Transport on demand, built around flexible flows
and very long distances.

In order to satisfy these two main applications,

Renault Trucks now offers two highly specialised
and complementary vehicles.

Distinguished by their excellence, this range

benefits from all our experience - bringing you
superior vehicles with best-in-class journey
speeds, payload and comfort. Their design and
manufacturing quality, together with their cutting-
edge technology, guarantee the cost efficiency
of your investment.

With this comprehensive, high-performance offering,

Renault Trucks brings you two standard-setting
solutions: the Renault Premium Long Distance
for organised transport, and for transport
on demand, the Renault Magnum.

and long-lasting driving enjoyment.

Add to that, low consumption, exemplary reliability

and the very finest manufacturing quality, and you

New high-performance engine Making every day profitable

With the new DXi13 engine and power ratings of up to
500 hp, Renault Magnum reasserts its position in the
forefront of the long-distance market.
The DXi13 applies its power, torque and matchless
punch to giving you the best possible journey times:
reaching 90% of its full capacity in under two seconds.
It delivers a power rating of 500 hp – with maximum
torque – over an exceptionally broad range of engine
speeds: 2,450 Nm from 1,050 to 1,400 rpm.
Renault Magnum also stands out for its low
consumption: high supercharged pressure, high
compression rate and precision injection combine to
produce particularly efficient combustion, reducing
consumption by as much as 5% compared with the
average for Euro 3 vehicles.

To ensure you always have the power rating to match

your needs, the DXi13 is available in 2 power ratings:
• Power rating: 460 hp / 339 kW 1,400 to 1,800 rpm
Torque: 2,300 Nm 1,050 kW at 1,400 rpm
• Power rating: 500 hp / 368 kW at 1,400 to 1,800 rpm
Torque: 2,450 Nm 1,050 kW at 1,400 rpm.

A beneficial technical choice

To ensure compliance with the Euro 4 standard and be
ready for Euro 5, Renault Trucks has chosen SCR
technology:
• Fuel consumption cut by up to 5% compared with
average Euro 3 and Euro 4 EGR vehicles
• Optimised maintenance costs
• No specific maintenance
• No need for any costly specific engine oil
• No impact on oil change frequency
• SCR technology has a lifespan equivalent to that of
the vehicle
• Not affected by fuel quality
• Reliability: the SCR system is simple, and has been
extensively tried and tested
• The choice for the future to anticipate the Euro 5
standard.
