As part of the renewal of its range, #Renault provides New #master and New #trafic with a strengthened shared visual identity. This modern, robust, expressive and compelling design is featured on the front-end of all our light commercial vehicles, just like the front-end of New #Renault Alaskan. The new generation of Kangoos, foreshadowed by the urban and electric #kangooze Concept show car, will also feature this design.
