Among other improvements, the new version features a new driveline and chassis.

The new Renault Premium represents another step in the work to renew the Renault Trucks product range. The new Premium is equipped with a new 11-liter engine in power classes up to 440 hp and is designed for a wide range of varying transport needs.

The new 11-liter engine is more efficient and compared with the earlier engine delivers up to 5 percent fuel savings.
