RENAULT TRUCKS Midlum trucks

The medium- and heavy-duty Renault Midlum trucks were produced from 2000 until 2014. The maximum authorised mass of some vehicles was only 7.5 tons while for others it reached 18. The assembly was carried out on plants in Blainville-sur-Orne (France) and in Montevideo (Uruguay). In Oceania, the vehicle was marketed under the brand name Mack Trucks. This model replaced the Midliner.

Renault Midlum: the background

The vehicle was fitted with a 2,100 mm wide cab. It was available in four variants with different lengths (mm):

• short (Day) – 1,600;
• universal (Global) – 2,000;
• with a sleeping berth (Sleeper) – 2,200;
• a four-door cab with 6–8 seats – 2,980 mm long.

These commercial vehicles were designed to be used mainly in urban conditions. The floor of the vehicle was covered with noise absorbing material, the driver’s seat was fitted with air suspension, and the steering column was reach- and tilt-adjustable. An auxiliary heater was available as an additional accessory.

The manufacturer offered almost two dozens of different wheelbases in the range between 2700 and 6800 mm. The vehicles could have the following axle configurations: 4 × 2, 4 × 4, 6 × 2. Refrigerator truck, tipper lorry, tank truck, etc. were among the available bodies. Besides, there were versions intended to be used by the fire department and utilities.

In 2006 the model was facelifted which resulted in the renewed cab design, improved suspension as well as in better fuel efficiency and more eco-friendly power units. For example, the vehicles were now equipped with the DXi5 and DXi7 engines with the high-pressure Common Rail fuel injection system. Besides, the manufacturer implemented the SCR exhaust gas treatment technology, due to which the engines conformed to the Euro 4 and Euro 5 emissions standards. The CCV (Closed Crankcase Ventilation) could be mounted optionally.

In 2011, a heavy-duty vehicle of this model was presented. Its maximum authorised mass was 16 tons and the payload reached 5.5 tons. That was the first commercial vehicle with such dimensions equipped with an electric power unit. It could cover 100 km without recharging.
