Renault Master Low Loader Review

The Renault Master Low Loader at a glance

Since 1980, the Renault Master has been a great light commercial vehicle and large van for businesses around the globe. It’s a very popular car model and has been recently announced as having a hydrogen-powered variant introduced, as well as the e-Master electric van.

Now in its third generation, it is available in a range of iterations including a Luton, Panel Van, Tipper, Dropside and the van type we’ll be focusing on today, the Renault Master Low Loader.

For those who are not sure, a low loader is essentially a Luton but with a lower floor. This means that a tail lift is not required to load it, due to the rear loading height being low enough to easily put items inside without having to lift them high. This makes them great for jobs where a lot of loading is required, such as removals or delivery jobs. This also lets them have an increased load volume, so you can fit large loads that may be oddly shaped inside with ease.

Vanaways loves the Renault Master Low Loader, so we have put together this review that summarises the features and performance you can expect from your new Renault Master.

Engines and Spec

The Renault Master runs on the redesigned 2.4-litre dCi turbo-diesel engine. This engine offers increased efficiency and power, reaching up to 180hp with ease. It is a manual drive using a 6-speed gearbox, which can help to further boost fuel efficiency. Selective Catalytic Reduction technology helps to convert pollutant emissions from the engine into harmless gases while having no impact on driving performance.

You can choose both front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive, allowing a driver to prioritise off-road capabilities or cargo capacities. It has a great capacity, with a 1.3-ton payload and 2.5-ton towing capacity, making it ideal for businesses who are looking to transport heavy goods frequently.

The Renault Master comes with a Wide View Mirror to help assist with blind spots, making the van safer than ever. As an optional extra you can get a rearview camera installed, making reversing and parking a breeze.

Interior

In the cab, you can expect three comfortable seats, and a bench in the back of the van in case you have to carry any more crew. It has a pull-down armrest by the driver’s seat, and a built-in step to get in and out of the vehicle.

The centre console is basic but effective, with dials for the heating and a radio built-in. It also has an easy-to-read dashboard, with an electric display in the middle of the speedometer to give you vital information. You can expect a DAB radio and Bluetooth connectivity, with the option of adding inbuilt navigation. If not, a satnav can easily be connected.

In the back there are plenty of anchor points to secure your goods, meaning that you can carry fragile items with ease, or ensure the payload does not move around during transit. The van has plenty of accessible storage areas, including under the seat and a fold-down middle seat with a console and space to work.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Easy loading
  • Increased payload
  • Comfortable cabin

Cons

  • Centre console basic
  • Only available with a diesel engine
  • Useful features are optional extras

The Verdict

Overall the Renault Master Low Loader is a great choice for businesses that want a lot of payload space and easy loading. It works best for companies looking to load large amounts of cargo without having to waste time using a tail lift, such as for removals or delivery services.

It is a spacious drive with 3 seats for workers, as well as a bench in the back if you need to carry a larger crew. It is a comfortable ride that is only available in a diesel engine, however, the Catalytic Reduction Technology ensures the van remains environmentally friendly without affecting performance.

It can adapt to any terrain so is perfect for both urban and country purposes, being fuel efficient and powerful enough to get any task done.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"I recently bought a new car from this company and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Tyler and Steve C were both brilliant to deal with – friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. They took the time to answer all my questions and made everything straightforward and stress-free. The customer service was excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. Both Tyler and Steve C really went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted and that I was happy with the car. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would definitely buy from them again in the future. Thanks again for such a great experience!"
