New version of Renault Magnum to be launched in 2005

AB Volvo’s subsidiary Renault Trucks plans to launch a new version of its Renault Magnum tractor unit for long-haul transports at the beginning of next year.

The launch of the new version of Renault Magnum is the latest example of the extensive product-renewal process under way at Renault Trucks. The updated Magnum will have a new driveline and be equipped with new engines and gearboxes. Great care has also been taken to improve the driver’s cab. The press showing of the new truck is expected to take place in early February 2005. November 23, 2004 For further information, please contact Mårten Wikforss, +46 31-66 11 27
