Renault PRO+ has enhanced the Master Z.E. range with an increased gross vehicle weight bringing added capability as well as a new chassis cab version giving customers even greater possibility for converting the all-electric model.

Previously offered in only a 3.1-tonne derivative, the Master Z.E. is now available with a 3.5-tonne gross vehicle weight across an increased range of body styles. The uprated capability brings the Master Z.E. in line with its diesel equivalent while also providing an enhanced additional payload of 375kg and further conversion options to meet customer requirements.

As well as the uplift in payload and Gross Vehicle Weight, the Master Z.E. 3.5T will also be available in a new chassis cab configuration providing the perfect base for a wide range of conversions. This, along with panel van and platform cab, is available in a choice of two lengths and two heights, plus a price listed ‘Off-the-Shelf’ Luton Low Loader Z.E. meaning the Master Z.E. now offers the widest variety of conversions for a large electric van range.

The New Master Z.E. 3.5T uses the same 33kWh battery as the 3.1T model providing an all-electric range of up to 75 miles, making it perfect for last mile deliveries. When powered by a 7kW wallbox, a full charge is capable in as little as six hours.

This latest addition to the Master Z.E. range, helps to further expand the electrification of Renault PRO+, which now also consists of the Master Z.E. 3.1T, Kangoo Z.E. and All-New ZOE Van, offering the widest range of all-electric commercial vehicles of any manufacturer.

Multiple model and body options
The increased Gross Vehicle Weight is offered across the whole body range of the Master Z.E. line-up which now includes a new chassis cab available for a wide range of conversions, such as Tippers, Dropsides and Luton Box vans. The additional body choices, plus range of two heights and three lengths, mean the Master Z.E. offers the widest range of variants for an electric commercial vehicle.

All body-styles benefit from increased payload thanks to the enhanced Gross Vehicle Weight delivering further practicality and further uses for the individual, such as the panel van now capable of being converted into a minibus for up to 13 passengers. The bodystyles available include:

• Chassis Cab: A new chassis cab version is available with a maximum payload of 1,620kg before conversion. The Master Z.E. chassis cab allows for a host of conversions including Tipper, Dropside and Luton Box Van. For example, a Master Z.E. equipped with a 20 m³large volume box and a tail lift guarantees 1,000kg of payload.
• Platform Cab: Two platform cab versions are available with a payload up to 1,740kg. This increased payload allows for larger conversions, including the possibility of a Luton Low-Loader of up to 20m³, with the advantage of a low loading sill.
• Panel van: With four practical panel van versions available, with volumes between 9 - 13m³, now offering up to 1,490kg of payload. This increased payload makes it possible to transport heavier equipment or even minibus conversions.

Powertrain, range and charging
The Master Z.E. 3.5T is powered by the same 33kWh battery and 57kW power unit as the 3.1T model. This ensures the medium-sized all-electric commercial vehicle is capable of travelling up to 75 miles on a single full charge, making it ideal for last-mile delivery purposes.

Delivering 225Nm of torque, a series of on-board technologies help to optimise the range including regenerative braking and an Eco mode which restricts abrupt acceleration as well as limiting the maximum speed to 50mph.

The Master Z.E. 3.5T can be charged from zero to 100 per cent in just six hours when plugged into a 32 A/7kW wallbox, which can be fitted as a home charger or through a public charging point, giving users a range of charging options.

Warranty
The Master Z.E. 3.5T comes with a 3-year /100,000 mile warranty as standard. Renault’s confidence in its battery technology is underlined by the 5-year / 62,000 battery warranty as standard on the vehicle.
