Limited to just 30 units, the Renault Trucks T High Ultimate Edition is based on the Renault Trucks T High model featuring a 540 hp engine. It combines the technical enhancements of the 2027 model year with a striking exterior design and an interior boasting exclusive trim details.
This special edition is individually numbered and available in three colors: purple, gold, and gray. It is produced at the customization center of the Bourg-en-Bresse plant. Inside, the exterior body colors are echoed in specific dashboard elements as well as in the stitching on the headrests and floor mats, creating a seamless link between the exterior and interior. The Renault Trucks T High Ultimate Edition also comes equipped with a FOCAL audio system. The vehicle includes a driver kit comprising a bag, socks, sunglasses, a cap, and a thermos flask.
With the introduction of the new DE13 R engine and a new generation of the Optidriver gearbox, Renault Trucks is further evolving the powertrains of its T, T High, C, and K model ranges. These enhancements enable an average reduction in fuel consumption of 4%. The new powertrain is compatible with HVO and B100 fuels.
The new DE13 R engine—delivering up to 540 hp and 2,800 Nm of torque at 900 rpm—has been developed using new materials, notably high-strength gray cast iron and compacted graphite iron, to enhance engine durability. It features several technical innovations aimed at optimizing combustion and minimizing energy losses. Maximum cylinder pressure can now reach 250 bar, while a new fuel supply system featuring an external high-pressure pump improves injection precision. In addition, the DE13 R engine comes standard with increased engine braking performance (Optibrake+).
The engine is paired with a new generation of the Optidriver transmission, which incorporates optimized gear-shifting strategies. Gear changes are up to 20% faster and smoother.
Standard features also include:
▪ Optivision+, a predictive driver assistance system that optimizes gear shifting, acceleration, and vehicle speed based on topographical data and traffic signs.
▪ Predictive Engine Stop & Start, which automatically switches off the engine while driving when it is not needed, while keeping essential vehicle functions active.
Renault Trucks also offers the optional Smart Racer2 version, which combines all energy-efficiency technologies: optimized aerodynamics, Optivision+, low-rolling-resistance tires, and advanced predictive powertrain management.
