Renault – other truck models: from the 1960s Super Galion through the construction truck Kerax to the T, C and K ranges, four- and six-cylinder engines of 2.2 to 12.8 litres, diesel and natural gas
This page gathers trucks from Renault Trucks that the register could not assign to a named range – from the Super Galion, a heavy truck of the 1960s and 1970s, through the construction and off-road truck Kerax (since 1997) to the T (long-haul), C (medium construction) and K (heavy construction) ranges built since 2013, and the low-floor urban truck Renault Access for waste collection. The Master appears here as the brand's lightest model.

The register lists here 46 versions with 69 to 390 kW from engines of 2,190 to 12,800 cm³ and gross weights from 3,500 to 19,000 kg; alongside diesel engines, natural-gas variants are also represented.
Renault Trucks, part of the Volvo Group since 2001, is one of the big European truck makers; the T range is the long-haul flagship, the K range with its rugged build the preferred choice for construction and forestry businesses, and the Kerax was their standard model for over a decade and a half.
On the older models such as the Super Galion and Kerax, rust on the frame and cab and the condition of clutch and gearbox count; on the newer T, C and K ranges, mileage, the maintenance history of the exhaust aftertreatment and the condition of the cab mounts; parts run through the Renault Trucks network.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
