Al Attiya Motors and Trading Company, the exclusive distributor of Renault Trucks in Qatar attended Renault Trucks introduction of the new K Xtrem to the Middle East market. The robust model, developed to take on the most challenging environments found in the Middle East, was launched during its XTREM DAYS event in Marrakech, Morocco to industry leaders from Sub-Sahara Africa, Greater Middle East, Algeria, Morocco and Turkey.
This Xtrem Days event was dedicated to the Renault Trucks C & K ranges, that brought over 450 clients from over 18 countries, participants were given the opportunity to test drive the vehicles and attend workshops to discover more about the ranges.
Designed for the most heavy-duty uses on the most extreme terrains such as quarries and mines, the K Xtrem comes with a reinforced chassis and an automated, reinforced Optidriver Xtrem gearbox. The new model offers a total capacity of 32 to 36 tons, cast iron engine flywheel housing and C-shaped side member reinforcement. Added to this, customers can specify 24” wheels, bolstering the model’s ability to tackle the toughest terrain.
Commenting on the arrival of the K Xtrem, Gregoire Blaise, Renault Truck Vice President for Greater Middle East said: “When developing the C and K ranges, we deployed significant resources to ensure these vehicles deliver maximum reliability and robustness. Each range underwent rigorous quality trials and were also exhaustively field tested under actual operating conditions. The K Xtrem version takes this one step further by offering our customers the most robust chassis in the market, specifically designed to meet extreme conditions such as those in the Middle East market.’’
The K Xtrem follows shortly after the launch of the robust C and K range from Renault Trucks in 2016. Catered to customers working not only in the construction and longhaul industries, but in heavy construction as well these new ranges were designed and developed by working closely with international customers, who were involved in the project from the design stage right through to testing in actual operating conditions.
The K range has set new standards in terms of robustness. It has an impressive design with a full steel bumper, exceptional obstacle clearance and the best approach angle on the market. The K Range’s variety of chassis reinforcements such as the K Xtrem allow it to adapt to even the toughest conditions.
The Renault Trucks C Range is perfectly designed for construction, construction site supply and long haul conditions. It has a high payload, low fuel consumption and comfort of a road vehicle. Its excellent pulling power, manoeuvrability and obstacle clearance capacity make it an excellent choice not only for professionals delivering materials in urban settings, but for those working in specialized fields such as earthmoving, concrete transport and fertiliser transport.
