Slotting into the companys light commercial vehicle Range just above the Kangoo and just below the well-respected Master van, it completes head-on with rivals like Fords Transit for buyers wanting a maximum payload of up to 1.2 tonnes. Thanks to wide opening doors, your load is always easily accessible and can even be loaded from a fork-lift truck. The Trafic has been substantially revised in recent times, with styling tweaks, more equipment and, most importantly, a fresh Range of Euro 4 engines ranging in power from 90 to 150bhp.
Our latest Trafic models feature a re-designed front end using one-piece headlamp units with built-in indicators and a restyled radiator grille expressing what Renault hope is a stronger visual identity. At the rear, there are revised lamp units and a useful footplate for added practicality. Inside, drivers used to the pre-facelifted model should notice an improvement in quality, especially around the revised dashboard.
As before, theres a wide choice of variants on offer. The basic selection is between two wheelbases (short and long 3098mm and 3498mm), two roof heights (short and high, 1.96m and 2.50m) and three body types: panel van, commercial passenger vehicle (Trafic 9 Seat) and platform cab. The best-selling version, the SL (short wheelbase, low roof), has a load volume of 5m³, with a load length of 2.41m and an interior height of 1.38m. The long wheelbase version has a load volume of 5.
93m³ and 40cm additional length. The high roof versions have 7m³ and 8m³ capacities and standing-room interior height of 1.91m. Theres also a popular six-seat Trafic Crew Van variant, offered in both short and long wheelbase versions of the low roof models, with a load area of up to 4m³. So to the engine line-up. The introduction of Euro 4 standards has brought two versions of the latest 2.0 dCi diesel engine, developed jointly under the Renault-Nissan alliance developing either 90 or 115bhp.
If you need more grunt than either of these two powerplants can offer, the next step is to opt for Renaults 2.5 dCi engine, now with 150bhp and a particulate filter. All these units come with a six-speed manual gearbox but if you go for the 115 or 150bhp models, theres also the option of a six-speed semi-automatic Quickshift6 transmission to save your clutch foot.
For your complete peace of mind, Renault also supplies the Trafic with a 3-year/60,000 mile warranty, including 3-years roadside assistance from the AA. In addition, the cost of repairing minor impact damage has been reduced thanks to the small number of components which need to be changed during the repair process.
