Detailed analysis of the Renault Trafic Passenger Combi 9 Largo Energy dCi 140 Twin Turbo · 140 CV (2014-2015)
General description
The 2014 Renault Trafic Long, in its Combi 9 Energy dCi 140 Twin Turbo version, is presented as a robust and versatile option for those seeking space and efficiency. With a 1.6-liter, 140 hp diesel engine, this vehicle is designed to transport passengers comfortably and with remarkable performance. Its price of €28,738 at the time of its launch positioned it as an interesting alternative in the commercial and family vehicle segment.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Trafic Long, the feeling is one of control and stability. Despite its dimensions, the electro-hydraulic steering facilitates maneuvers, and the 140 hp engine, with its twin turbo, offers an energetic response from low revolutions (340 Nm at 1500 rpm), which translates into an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.8 seconds and a top speed of 181 km/h. The combined consumption of 6.2 l/100km is a plus, demonstrating remarkable efficiency for its size and capacity. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and rigid axle at the rear, seeks a balance between comfort and load capacity, although on uneven terrain it can transmit some vibrations to the cabin.
Design and aesthetics
The exterior design of the 2014 Renault Trafic Long is functional and modern, with lines that seek to optimize interior space without sacrificing a pleasant aesthetic. Its 5399 mm length and 1956 mm width give it an imposing presence. The interior, designed for nine occupants, stands out for its practicality and the possibility of configuring the seats to adapt to various needs. Although it is not a luxury vehicle, the materials and finishes are adequate for its segment, prioritizing durability and ease of maintenance.
Technology and features
In the technological section, the Trafic Long incorporates elements that improve the driving experience and efficiency. The 1.6-liter diesel engine with common rail direct injection, variable geometry turbo, and intercooler is an example of advanced engineering for its time. The inclusion of the Stop&Start system contributes to reducing fuel consumption and emissions in urban environments. Although advanced infotainment systems are not detailed, functionality and mechanical reliability are the pillars of its technological proposal.
Competition
In the passenger van market, the Renault Trafic Long competes with models such as the Volkswagen Transporter Combi, the Ford Transit Custom Kombi, and the Mercedes-Benz Vito Tourer. Each of them offers its own advantages in terms of equipment, engines, and configurations, but the Trafic stands out for its balance between price, capacity, and efficiency, especially with its dCi 140 Twin Turbo engine.
Conclusion
The 2014 Renault Trafic Long is a vehicle that more than fulfills its purpose: to offer spacious, efficient, and reliable passenger transport. Its 140 hp diesel engine provides adequate performance for any situation, and its interior design maximizes versatility. It is a solid option for large families or for professional use, where capacity and economy of use are priorities. Its value for money makes it a very competitive alternative in its segment.
