Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14: the new electric assets for city centres

Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14: the new electric assets for city centres
Compact and agile, they join the electric medium-duty range developed by Renault Trucks, which now provides solutions fit for all urban applications, from 12 to 26 tonnes.

These two models – the Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 for the French market and the Renault Trucks E-Tech D14 for other European markets – share the same design and performance while meeting the specific needs of each market.

Electric trucks built for the heart of the city

With a 2.39-metre-wide chassis, a 3.8-metre wheelbase and a turning radius under 7.3 metres, the Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14 are the most compact and manoeuvrable vehicles in the manufacturer’s electric range. They stand out as the ideal solution for deliveries in dense urban environments where space is limited. Their low load bed height makes it easier to perform repeated tasks, whether they involve dry or refrigerated goods distribution. With a payload of 5.6 t for the Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and 6.7 tonnes for the Renault Trucks E-Tech D14, they achieve an excellent trade-off between carrying capacity and agility.
Finally, they are the only trucks in their category to feature full air suspension, both at the front and rear, providing optimal driving comfort in urban environments.

Range to meet the city's needs and simplified charging


Fitted with LFP batteries providing a combined capacity of 176 kWh, the Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14 offer a range of up to 220 km on a single charge, comfortably covering the needs of a full day’s distribution work in town. They also feature a 43 kW AC on-board charger, to enable charging at alternating-current stations, which are widely available and easy to install.

Services to optimise operations

The Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14 are paired with a set of services designed to make operators’ day-to-day work easier.

Drivers and fleet managers can remotely monitor charging data using the Driver App and plan their routes with the Optifleet Mission module, which come as standard. With the optional module Optifleet Charge, they can remotely control battery charging status and optimise charging cycles to maximise vehicle availability.

Going a step further, the Serenity Pack – a specific electromobility contract – provides enhanced tracking and personalised assistance by Renault Trucks experts during the first year of operation, to guarantee optimal use of the electric truck.

Finally, the Renault Trucks E-Tech Programme consultancy service provides transport operators with access to electromobility experts and advanced tools (fleet and route analysis, site energy capacity assessment, range and CO₂ savings simulations, etc.) to build a bespoke decarbonisation strategy.

The Renault Trucks E-Tech D12 and D14 are available to order and will be produced at the plant in Blainville-sur-Orne, France – a European leader in electric truck manufacturing. With these new models, the Renault Trucks electric distribution range is now available in 12, 14, 16, 19 and 26 tonnes. They are part of a comprehensive electromobility solution offering that ranges from a 350-kg cargo bike all the way to a 50-tonne tractor.
