Renault Trucks Competitor Book - D WIde 350hp

Renault Trucks D Wide 350hp The most agile and compact truck for city deliveries!

Positioned for regional distribution and environmental services, the D Wide 350hp focuses on a balance between power, payload capacity, and operational flexibility.

It offers a wide range of wheelbases and a relatively tight turning radius, making it suitable for both urban environments and regional routes.

The vehicle is equipped with an automated transmission and can be paired with Optifleet tools for fleet management and operational monitoring.

Key characteristics include a high payload capacity, a 2.3 m wide cab designed for driver comfort, and an engine calibrated for heavy-duty use cases.

Scoring logic

5 = Best in class 4 = Very competitive 3 = Average / competitive 2 = Below average 1 = Weakness versus competitors

Multiple OEMs can share the same score.

The objective is to remain fact-based while highlighting Renault Trucks strengths for internal positioning.

Criterions

Engine displacement

Power output

Explanations Lower displacement is better for payload, weight optimization and efficiency.

Power level closest to market expectation around 350hp.

Torque

Higher torque improves drivability, startability and heavy-duty usability.

Gearbox

Number of gears and market perception of automated transmission.

Load capacity

Higher load capacity is better.

Lower turning radius improves maneuverability.

Turning radius (wall to wall)

Wheelbase offer & diversity

(Wall-to-wall turning radius is the minimum circular space a vehicle needs to make a complete turn, measured between two walls or obstacles. It represents the smallest turning circle the vehicle can achieve without hitting surrounding structures.)

Lower minimum wheelbase and higher number of wheelbase configurations improve bodybuilder flexibility and application coverage.

Gearbox

Scania Opticruise remains one of the benchmark automated transmissions in the segment, offering smooth operation and good drivability.

Load capacity 4x2 19T

Adequate chassis load capacity for standard body applications, without providing a significant advantage over key competitors.

Load capacity 6x2 26T

Supports a wide range of body installations, although chassis load capacity remains broadly in line with segment expectations

Turning radius 4x2 wtw

Good maneuverability, although Renault Trucks generally offers stronger urban agility on comparable wheelbases.

Turning radius 6x2 wtw

Power (350hp as ref)

Lowest power output in the comparison (320 hp vs 350 hp for Renault Trucks), which may limit performance for demanding applications.

Torque

Lowest torque level in the benchmark (1,250 Nm vs 1,400 Nm for Renault Trucks), resulting in lower pulling capability and drivability under heavy loads.

Gearbox

Equipped with a 12-speed automated transmission similar to most competitors, offering a competitive drivetrain solution.

Load capacity 4x2 19T

Lower payload capacity than Renault Trucks in the 4x2 segment (11.4 t vs 13 t), reducing available payload for operators.

Load capacity 6x2 26T

Lowest payload capacity in the benchmark .

Turning radius 4x2 wtw

Good turning radius in the benchmark (7.6 m vs 7.75 m for Renault Trucks), providing superior maneuverability in urban operations.

Turning radius 6x2 wtw

Largest turning radius among competitors (8.6 m vs 7.95 m for Renault Trucks), making it less maneuverable in confined environments.

WB min & diversity 4x2

Widest wheelbase range but with limited diversity (3,875 mm / 5 variants), providing less flexibility for bodybuilders and customer applications.

WB min and diversity 6x2

Widest wheelbase offering (4,800 mm) but only 7 variants, giving customers lower configuration flexibility.
