THE VERDICT
Page 56
If you've noticed an error in this article please click here to report it so we can fix it.
Clearly, given the level of competitor activity, there's a need for a hefty revamp of the Renault Premium, and thankfully this latest very minor facelift is not it! But for a meeting with Renault Trucks' head honcho Stefano Chmielewski at the Amsterdam truck show a couple of weeks ago, we were all prepared to lay into Renault big style. But, as he puts it: We did nothing, it's only a very minor facelift. The bigger revision will be coming soon." For which. read 18 months at the very latest.
The size its have, therefore, been put aside for another day, allowing us to see the Premium facelift in a new light. No, it isn't a major addition to the cultural lives of UK drivers, nor is it going to make a massive difference to your operational bottom line, indeed it doesn't even in our opinion justify a price rise. It does, however, signal that Renault is listening to its critics and moving to put things right. We await the more extensive revamp with anticipation!
