2019 Renault Master

By improving the standards of its LCV and passenger-transport range, Groupe Renault is reasserting its determination to move from European leader to world leader consistent with the objectives of its strategic plan, Drive the Future (2017-2022).
This major ambition is based on quantified objectives:
Increase LCV sales by over 40%
Double market coverage from 24% to 50%
Remain the electric LCV leader by marketing an electric version of all of its vans (excluding pick-ups)

Become the world LCV leader with sales of over 2.5 million units a year, thanks to the Alliance with
Nissan and Mitsubishi.

New Renault Master: muscular design, power and robustness

Featuring a new front end, New Master has also been redesigned inside. The cabin scores higher on perceived quality as well as functionality and practicality, with chrome inserts, new upholstery, and a cockpit equipped with an enhanced mobile office. The new 2.3 dCi engines provide more power and torque while reducing fuel consumption. Driving is safer and more seamless thanks to new advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). New Master Z.E., Renault’s fourth electric vehicle, joined the Group’s LCV line-up in 2017.

Since launch in 1980, Renault Master has ranked at the forefront of the large van market:
2.4 million units sold, 118,176 of which in 2018
 Sold in over 50 countries
Master has set sales records every year since 2014
Renault launched Master 2 in 1997 and Master 3 in 2010

 Master is available in 350 versions with three heights, four lengths and useful load volume of 8 to 22 m3

Produced at the Batilly plant (France)

Master has been produced at the Renault Sovab plant in Batilly since 1980. The plant has nearly 2,700 employees and has hired 370 people in the last four years. In parallel, the site’s business activity generates nearly 5,000 indirect jobs locally. Eighty-four per cent of the plant’s suppliers are based in France. Produced at Renault’s Batilly plant in France and Curitiba plant in Brazil since 2009, Renault Master is the market leader in France, Poland, Slovenia, Croatia, Brazil and Morocco. Extra style, with no compromises on functionality
Front-end metamorphosis for greater robustness
The comprehensive restyle is consistent with the shared visual identity of the other models in Renault’s LCV
range. New Master gains extra robustness through a more expressive and dynamic front end:
 New vertical-design grille
 The C-Shape light signature, fit as standard, embodying the identity of the Renault range
 A higher hood line
 Reinforced bumpers and front wings.
The contrast between the vertical emphasis of the grille and the horizontal emphasis of the hood lends New
Master a strong and powerful look. A handlebar-shaped chrome grille and additional chrome strips bring a
touch of elegance and sophistication to the front-end design.
New Master is being launched with new opaque body paint, “Urban Gray”.
Enhanced interior design: top-quality materials and pure styling
New Master has taken on passenger-car cues. The interior gains in quality through the use of higher-quality,
darker and less glossy materials. The designers have created more horizontal, simple and pure lines.

The elegant and functional interior features:
 A new restyled dashboard with large open or closed storage spaces
 Chrome inserts on the air vents, air-conditioning buttons and new steering wheel
A new gear-stick handle, black with chrome surrounds
 New, more high-tech upholstery
 A dashboard equipped with a 3.5-inch TFT digital screen
 The navigation screen is fully integrated in the central area of the dashboard whatever the multimedia system used, be it R-LINK Evolution or Media Nav Evolution.
More power with the 2.3 dCi engine
New Master is powered by a new range of 2.3 dCi engines more adapted than ever to the needs of
professionals.
The engines comply with the Euro 6d-temp / Euro 6d standards (depending on vehicle volume and
mass) and are equipped with Twin Turbo technology.
 Power and torque have been increased, to a maximum 180 hp and 400 Nm, for a dynamic and
responsive drive.
The engines reduce fuel consumption by up to 1 l/100 km (NEDC correlated figures).
Depending on the version, the new powerplants are available with a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed
semi-automatic gearbox.
They are fitted with the latest pollution control technologies, including a selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
system.

Capacious cargo area designed for efficiency
The largest mobile office in its category
New Master has one of the largest storage volumes in its category, at up to 105 liters. For greater practicality,
the cockpit has been redesigned with:
 A new “Easy Life” folding tray above the glove box, which unfolds with a simple push, providing:
– An additional work space
– A lunch space equipped with a large, central cup holder
A capacious 10.5-liter “Easy Life” drawer for easier access
An induction smartphone charger
A docking station for tablets at the center of the dashboard
High-performance connected multimedia solutions:
– R-LINK Evolution
– Media Nav Evolution (compatible with Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay™, depending on
the version).
To improve the driving experience, particular work went into the man-machine interfaces on the New Master
dashboard.
LED lighting and ergonomic handles for easier loading and onboard work
The loading area on New Master has been optimized so that professionals can work more efficiently in all
conditions:
 New LED lighting opposite the sliding door and at the rear in the central part of the ceiling
– five times more lighting power in the cargo area
 New ergonomic door handles for easy entries and exits

– One minimum at the rear, two with a sliding door, and three with two sliding doors
– Robust, easy to grip and ideally positioned for excellent rear and side access.
“All Around Safety” driving experience
Equipped with a lane departure warning system, rear park assist and a reversing camera, New Master is
available with new advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to make driving easier and ensure the
complete peace of mind of drivers and passengers:
 Front Park Assist
 Rear View Assist, with a screen on the upper part of the windscreen providing optimal rear visibility
for medium and long distances
 Blind Spot Warning, alerting drivers of objects in their blind spots
 Side Wind Assist (standard), a vehicle stabilization system that activates at speeds of over 70 km/h
and corrects sideways deviations by up to 50% in extreme conditions
 Automatic lights and wipers (standard)
Active Emergency Braking System, active both in cities and on highways.
