The Renault T480 Turbo Compound is equipped with advanced engine technology to optimise fuel consumption and improve performance. 

It is a high-performance, economical truck, designed for long distances and heavy haulage, with a focus on reducing fuel consumption and complying with environmental standards.

Here are its main technical specifications:

𝟭. 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗼 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲
 

• The T480 features a 13-litre DTI engine, combined with Turbo Compound technology.
• This technology recovers some of the energy from exhaust gases, which is normally lost, to return torque to the valvetrain and increase engine torque without consuming more fuel, thereby reducing fuel consumption.

• The T480 Turbo Compound produces 480 bhp, hence the name, with maximum torque of 2,550 Nm.
• This high torque is particularly useful for heavy haulage, enabling better acceleration and hillholding.

• It is equipped with the Optidriver robotised gearbox, which optimises gear changes according to driving conditions.
• This gearbox is designed to work in synergy with the Turbo Compound engine, providing smoother, more economical driving.

• The model includes driving assistance systems such as Optivision (anticipatory cruise control based on the road profile), to optimise the use of engine power and reduce fuel consumption.
• Features such as adaptive cruise control and emergency braking also contribute to greater safety and a more comfortable driving experience.

• The cab is designed to improve aerodynamics and reduce wind resistance, contributing to better fuel economy.
• Inside, the cab is ergonomically designed and equipped for driver comfort, with adjustable seats, a comfortable bed for long distances, and practical storage.

• The engine complies with Euro 6 Step D emission standards, limiting emissions of CO₂ and other polluting particles.
• Thanks to Turbo Compound technology, lower fuel consumption also contributes to a smaller ecological footprint.
