A GLOBAL GROUP 2014 BUSINESS MODEL RENUALT TRUCKS T-RANGE
On 23 September 2014, the Renault Trucks T was
voted International Truck of the Year 2015 by the
International Truck of the Year jury made up of 25
journalists from the international trade press.
Gianenrico Griffi ni, the jury’s president, presented the
prestigious trophy to Bruno Blin, the President of
Renault Trucks, during the 65th edition
of the IAA Commercial Vehicle show in Hanover.
Having collected a total of 129 points, 48 points ahead
of its nearest rival, the Renault Trucks T carried off
the prestigious award. The jury judged that the
Renault Trucks T is the vehicle that has made the
largest contribution to road haulage this year.
The International Truck of the Year jury awarded the title to the
Renault Trucks T on the basis of several criteria: technological inno-
vations, comfort, safety, on-road performance, fuel savings, the
vehicle’s environmental footprint and total cost of ownership.
The jury highlighted the Renault Trucks T’s qualities, making
particular mention of its state-of-the-art aerodynamic solutions
as well as the comfort provided for drivers both when at the wheel
and when resting.
– The Renault Trucks T combines the qualities of the brand’s
previous fl agship models with the latest technological innovations
in the world of commercial vehicles, summed up Gianenrico
Grif ni, the International Truck of the Year Jury President.
– This has resulted in one of the most signifi cant launches in
the last few years.
When presented with the award, Bruno Blin, the
President of Renault Trucks stated:
– I am delighted to accept this award on behalf
ofRenault Trucks and would like to share it with all
those working in our company and network
throughout the world. This award makes us proud, as it will also
bring pride to those who purchase our trucks and drive them.
He then added:
– One year ago, Renault Trucks entered a whole new era with
the launch of an entirely new range. This award is the best possi-
ble way of highlighting the new Renault Trucks identity. I am
certain that recognition of the Renault Trucks T’s qualities by spe-
cialised, independent journalists from 25 European countries will
be a powerful argument for winning over new customers.
