Renault unveils all-new Master van

Renault has unveiled its all-new Master van, which has a new profile and a choice of drivetrains, including the adaptability for accommodating any future hydrogen fuel cell.

The 100% electric version of the Master van has a range of 255 miles, which Renault says makes it a leader in its class.

Some three million Masters have been sold since the van was launched back in 1980, although so far, it has made a relatively small impact on the motorhome market.

The new vehicle now comes with an S-shaped dashboard, incorporating as standard a 10-inch infotainment screen. It will be available to order from the first quarter of 2024.

Renault recently received a silver medal at the Owner Satisfaction Awards, thanks to a score of 79.9% in the Best Pre-owned Base Vehicle. Another ‘van, the Adria Active Camper, comes on a Renault Trafic base vehicle, and proved popular with our judging panel at the Practical Motorhome Awards too, where it was our pick of the small campervans on the market for the 2024 season.

Other recent ‘van news has seen Volkswagen update its second generation Crafter and Citroen is set to launch its own campervan, while Vantage Motorhomes has collaborated with Motion R Design to create the Motion R campervan.

Peter Baber is Reviews Editor of both Practical Motorhome and Practical Caravan. He has been reviewing motorhomes for the best part of a decade now. His first caravan reviews date back to the early 1990s when he first worked on Practical Caravan, before he embarked on a 20-year career in business journalism which saw him edit a wide variety of magazines, and launch a few too, including one that won an award. Although he enjoyed that, he always knew he wanted to come back. Peter reports on all the new models that make it to dealer forecourts each season, giving his judgement online and in magazine reviews. He has twice been shortlisted for a Caravan Writers Guild award. When he is not working, apart from going on motorhome trips himself (mostly local to where he lives in West Yorkshire, but also last year right across France) he likes trying to write novels, cooking, throwing the odd pot, and has just taken up tennis.
