All adaptation operations carried out on Renault Trucks D and D Wide medium-duty trucks at the end of the production line will now be done within the factory.

These new facilities cover an area of 2,500 m2 and allow operators, technicians and engineers to operate at nine workstations simultaneously.

"This centre means that we can now carry out all these operations within the factory, with optimised costs and lead times for our customers."
