Renault Premium – Renault Trucks' heavy truck 1996 to 2013: long-haul and distribution from 18 to 44 tonnes, six-cylinder DCi engines from 154 to 346 kW, succeeded by the Renault T
The Premium replaced the older Renault AE and R ranges in the heavy segment in 1996, covering both long-haul transport (Premium Route) and urban distribution (Premium Distribution) at Renault Trucks. The three-digit number in the type designation (210 to 460) denotes the approximate power in metric horsepower, followed by codes for axle configuration and chassis variant; the Premium was powered throughout by six-cylinder DCi common-rail diesels. The range ended in 2013 in favour of the new Renault T, which has carried the brand's heavy programme since.

The register lists 216 versions with power outputs from 154 to 346 kW, displacements from 6,170 to 11,116 cm³ and six cylinders. Unladen weights range from 6,210 to 28,000 kg, permissible gross weights from 11,975 to 37,000 kg, lengths from 5,820 to 12,000 mm at widths between 2,400 and 2,600 mm – the span covers both distribution chassis and tractor units for 40-tonne combinations.
As a long-haul and construction-site model, the Premium competed with the Mercedes Actros, the MAN TGA/TGS and the Volvo FM, with which it also shared components within the Volvo Group after the 2001 takeover.
On used examples, check the clutch and gearbox depending on mileage, the turbocharger and EGR valve, the frame and leaf springs for rust and cracking, the braking system including engine brake and retarder, and, on tractor units, the condition of the fifth wheel; spare parts run through the Renault Trucks network and the Volvo Group catalogue.
