Etrusco Van Renault with Sunset

 

New chassis cooperation with Renault

  • Two slim, semi-integrated Renault-based vans
  • New models available from spring 2023
  • All-round carefree package: "Complete Selection" for all models

For the first time, Etrusco is starting the travel season with new van models based on Renault. For the two models, V 5.9 DR and V 6.8 SR, the motorhome manufacturer enables availability, despite continuing global supply bottlenecks. The Renault-based V-models are characterized by a compact design, only 2,14 m wide, and now complement the current model variants on Ford chassis. Therefore, Etrusco offers even more choice within the product family. The first units are planned to be delivered already planned for spring 2023.

Compact design line with high comfort

The new Renault-based van models meet ambitious travel requirements and offer a high level of comfort in a compact space. In addition, the two models offer an attractive price-performance ratio. The slightly shorter Van V 5.9 DR starts at 51,199 EUR. A maximum width of 2.14 m makes both models agile and dynamic companions that offer everything needed for active travelling.

New cooperation on Renault chassis

Etrusco is cooperating with the French car manufacturer Renault for the first time and thus enlarging its product portfolio again, following the last cooperation with Ford in 2022. "We see interesting variants with the new chassis from Renault, which should appeal in particular to motorhome enthusiasts. In building the vehicles, we are relying on our existing experience in the van sector. Our customers benefit from modern and well thought out layouts as well as appealing living spaces in the interior," says Christian Striebel, Managing Director of Etrusco. When designing the motorhomes, the product managers closely followed the previous Ford-based van models.

In addition to a new engine variant from Renault, customers benefit above all from the good availability of Renault models. Both vans are manufactured in proven Etrusco quality and powered by 145 hp (107 kW) four-cylinder engine. New chassis - popular layout, that is the motto.

Design line remains

The two Renault vans continue the typical modern-elegant Etrusco design in the interior. The functional vario bathroom, a spacious, welcoming layout and the practical kitchenette offer plenty of comfort with compact dimensions. The primary difference between the two models: the slightly larger V 6.8 SR has two single beds that can be converted into a double bed. The V 5.9 DR offers a cosy transverse bed in the rear. Together with a creative team of designers, engineers, and technicians. Etrusco continues its concept in equipment and design. This includes modern motorhomes with Italian charm, for trend-conscious travelers who are looking for fun, variety and the extraordinary.

Popular equipment package also available from Renault

The "Complete Selection", the Etrusco all-round carefree package, can also be booked with the new models. "In the meantime, 80% of our customers opt for this comprehensive equipment package for our motorhomes," notes Sandra Marinaro, Product Manager at Etrusco. It includes various features such as 16-inch aluminum rims, frame windows and the multimedia package with entertainment system and reversing camera.

The design line is also underlined with the discreet "type x" décor set. In addition to the appealing exterior accents, the equipment options included in the package include high-gloss overhead cabinet fronts and the modern and bright "Emilia" living world. "The Complete Selection package is very popular as it creates a significant price advantage and guarantees that the vehicle is equipped with all the relevant features for a relaxed start to the holiday right from the factory," Marinaro concludes.
