Renault Trucks launches truck simulator app game 21 January 2015

Renault Trucks has launched a truck simulator application, aimed at the general public, but also potentially useful to driver trainers.

TruckSimulator is a driving simulation game in which players use a vehicle in operational situations, driving on work site, urban environments and open roads.

They can select from Renault Trucks T, C, K and D range vehicles.

The application is available as a free download on the App Store and Google Play.

"With the TruckSimulator app, Renault Trucks offers the general public a wide variety of driving situations that correspond to those drivers can come up against throughout their careers," states Franck Nallet, who is in charge of digital communication at Renault Trucks.

"This application puts the Renault Trucks T, C, K and D into context and enables everyone to discover our Euro 6 range in an entertaining way."

Players first choose the driving environment, which determines the type of assignments they will have to carry out.

If they choose long distance, for example, their objective will be to achieve the highest journey speed, while at the same time minimising fuel consumption, in line with hauliers' priorities.

Meanwhile, players going for heavy construction will be given the task of keeping their entire load on board at all times.

Other Renault Trucks apps include:

The Range (free): an easy way of discovering the new Renault Trucks Euro 6 range.

Cost Saver (free): to reduce the overall cost of vehicle usage, taking into account hauliers' circumstances and needs.

EcoCalculator (free): A calculator for assessing the environmental impact and financial implications of Renault Trucks vehicles and fleets

Truck Fuel Eco Driving (free): a game for practicing economic driving.

NavTruck (for purchase): the HGV dedicated GPS application supplying direct guidance and advice for reducing fuel consumption.

Time Book (free): the driving logbook for the 21st century which manages driving and rest time.
