Builders merchant cuts fuel bill by 10% with Renault Range C

Builders merchant MP Moran and Sons has taken delivery of four Renault Range C320 6x2s and is reporting early fuel savings of more than 10%.
Supplied by Renault Trucks London, the Range C vehicles were joined by two Renault 125bhp 3.5-tonne Renault Masters with curtainsider bodies. The London-based operator's fleet of more than 50 vehicles is now exclusively Renault over 3.5 tonnes. The Range C trucks, with 2.3m day cabs, were specified with nearside glass vision door for improved visibility of cyclists and pedestrians. "We've started cross-referencing the fuel figures and we are noticing a preliminary fuel saving in excess of 10%," confirms Martin Moran, director, adding that the optional glass door is "a brilliant feature". The Range Cs will be used to deliver building and plumbing materials to sites within the M25 and extending to Luton, while the Masters will be used to transport smaller loads and for deliveries for restricted access sites.
