Renault is bringing back three classic van names – Estafette, Goelette, and Trafic – for a new generation of electric commercial vehicles. All three models share a common platform developed by Renault's Ampere subsidiary and feature front-wheel drive and a Google-powered software experience. The vans will be produced in France and go on sale in 2024.
Renault unveils a trio of all-new electric vans. The Estafette E-Tech, Goelette E-Tech and Trafic E-Tech share the same 800V platform. They go on sale next year. With over half a million vans to its name, the Estafette was a staple of Renault ’s commercial vehicle lineup between 1959 and 1980 before being retired. Now, the French automaker has revived the iconic Estafette nameplate for a brand-new, all-electric commercial vehicle based on a newly developed 800-volt skateboard architecture.
It’s 17.3 feet long, 6.3 feet wide and 8.5 feet tall, which allows a person up to 6.2 feet tall to walk easily around the interior without having to crouch between the cabin and cargo area. There’s a large three-piece panoramic windshield for improved visibility, a sliding side door with an invisible integrated track, running boards on both sides and a single-piece roller shutter door at the rear. The series-production Estafette was previewed by the namesake concept vehicle last year.
