Future innovation!
Design and develop a refrigerated transport vehicle demonstrator with a gain of consumption by 13 % compared to Euro 6 reference distribution vehicle.
Renault Trucks and six partners have just launched the EDIT (Efficient Distribution Truck) project, which aims to reduce distribution vehicles’ fuel consumption by 13%
compared with a current production vehicle, thanks to the use of innovative technologies. The prototype to be used will be a Renault Trucks D Wide Euro 6 with a refrigerated body. The EDIT project has been labelled by the LUTB Transport and Mobility System competitive cluster and selected within the framework of the 19th FUI Regions invitation to submit projects.
The collaborative project brings together Renault Trucks , Valeo , Lamberet , Michelin, BeNomad , INSA Lyon ( LaMCoS ) IFSTTAR ( LICIT ).
