The fourth-generation Renault Master offers greater space, technology and comfort than its predecessor and the pure electric Renault Master E-Tech is powered by a 105kW/300Nm motor, with an 87kWh battery that provides a WLTP range of up to 285 miles – a 20% improvement on the previous model.

With a bold new design, the Renault Master E-tech is available in a range of versions with load spaces of 11 to 14.8 cubic metres, along with a 40mm wider opening then the previous model via the sliding side door and a 100mm longer load bay,

Inside, there’s a 25% increase in total cabin storage, as well as Renault’s OpenR Link multimedia system. Standard on every model in the range, it features a 10-inch screen with wired and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity. The system can be enhanced with optional Google built-in on the Extra trim level.

There are 20 driver assistance systems including lateral stability assist, automatic emergency braking and trailer stability assist systems. It also comes with Intelligent Speed Assist, to help the driver stay within the speed limit.

Ask HJ

What Luton box van do you recommend for me?

I want to create a mobile art therapy studio in the back of a box van to make it easier to get to my clients with all my equipment and have an uninterrupted space to work. My criteria are: 1. maximum space in the back to create an office type room including insulation, a window, and a sink. 2. best fuel economy (I will travel to 2-3 locations daily within a 5 - 25 mile radius). Reliable for many years.
Possibly the biggest challenge here will be understanding the weight of all your equipment, as converting a Luton van might not be the best approach. We'd advise buying a used camper van instead, as this will already have a sink and electric wiring and will probably save money in the long run. A Fiat Ducato or a Peugeot Boxer-based camper is probably your best bet.
