Renault Access

In 2010, Renault Trucks and Dennis Eagle Ltd have signed a partnership agreement for the distribution of a vehicle with a low-entry cab, to be named “Access”. Mainly designed for domestic refuse collection applications, it replaces the Puncher to complete the Renault Trucks Distribution range, joining the Premium Distribution and the Renault Midlum.

It will be fitted with the DXi 7 Euro 5 engine with a power rating of 270 hp or 310 hp. and will first of all be sold in France before being gradually becoming available on other European markets. Specialised in domestic refuse collection vehicles, the UK company Dennis Eagle has a unique wealth of expertise on the market for vehicles with low-entry cabs.

Manufactured in the UK, the vehicle will initially be distributed and sold in Europe under the Renault Trucks brand. Predominantly aimed at the refuse collection market, operators will be able to rely on the Renault Trucks network for all their maintenance and servicing needs.

Renault Access is available in two configurations: 4×2 rigid (GVW 18-19 T) or 6×2*4 (26 T) with a track width of 2.50 m, a turning radius of only 6.60 m between curbs and available with short wheelbases from 3,250 mm (4×2 rigid). Operators working in town centres who really need a “go everywhere” vehicle can also opt for a “narrow track” version only 2.29 m wide, in any configuration.
