Renault has updated its mid-size Trafic van, bringing a suite of safety gear and lightly tweaked styling.
Prices are up by $490 across the board, which means the range now opens at $49,490 before on-roads for the base Trafic SWB Pro manual and extends to $63,490 before on-roads for the full-fat Trafic LWB Crew lifestyle.
Tweaks include new Renault logos and a bulkhead with a glazed window, as well as a middle-seat work station and document holder with hidden laptop storage.
New safety gear includes a driver attention monitor, autonomous emergency braking (AEB), a “QR rescue code”, an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) shortcut button, and automatic bi-LED reflector-style headlights.

Renault says the ADAS shortcut button provides “direct access to an on/off switch for ADAS features”. It also unlocks a “perso” mode, which allows drivers to set up personal favourites to activate or deactivate certain features “at the press of a button”.
Similarly, the QR rescue code is a digitised barcode on the windscreen that allows first responders “quick access to the vehicle’s structural and technical information in the event of a crash”.
Other changes include making a factory-fitted steel bulkhead standard, which features a glazed window to reduce road noise. This was previously an option on Trafic Pro van models.
Fitted inside is a 7-inch digital information display in the instrument cluster, chrome trim for Trafic Crew models, and under-seat storage for the rear seats of Trafic Lifestyle models. Several option packs are also available, which will be detailed in a separate article.
Under the bonnet is still a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel, which produces 125kW of power and 380Nm of torque. It’s mated with either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed dual-clutch automatic, with drive sent to the front wheels only.
Renault backs its Trafic with a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, and servicing is required every 12 months or 30,000km – whichever comes first. The French brand also offers capped-price servicing for the first five visits.
A full price and specs article for the updated Trafic will be published in due course.
