By the time you read this, the first examples of the face-lifted Midlum will have landed in the UK, retaining the driveline offering of Renault's dCi6, six-cylinder common-rail engine rated at 220 and 270hp.
The big news will come later in the spring, with 5.0 and 7.0-litre Euro-4 engines from Deutz, and a thoroughly revamped cab interior. The current Midlum 18-tonner tackles the payload-conscious end of the distribution sector, using the same cab as the lighter weight versions, though mounted higher on the chassis. Renault claims ultra low 4,800kg chassis-cab weight for the Midlum 18-tonner All Midlums are offered with innovative cab interior options designed to suit the different requirements of drivers and operators—Global Office, Relax, Utility and Night. The cab comfort is good, though now in need of a makeove to keep pace with the opposition. The driv position is good and the braking and hand are also Midlum plus points. Service inter are at 60,000km.
