Speed Limiters for Renault Trucks: T, T High, C, K, D and D Wide

Renault Trucks, part of the Volvo Group, has a solid footprint in the UK commercial vehicle market. The range covers everything from 3.5-tonne urban delivery trucks to 44-tonne long-haul tractor units. Renault Trucks are particularly popular in distribution, construction, and municipal applications, where they offer competitive total cost of ownership.

At AutoKontrol, we have over 41 years of speed limiter expertise and provide solutions for the full Renault Trucks range. Whether you operate a single D Series on local deliveries or a fleet of T High tractor units on trunk routes, we have the right product and the experience to fit it correctly.

Renault Trucks Model-by-Model Speed Limiter Guide

Renault T and T High

The T range is Renault’s long-haul platform, with the T High offering the flagship high-roof cab. These models use Renault’s DTI 11 and DTI 13 engines with electronic drive-by-wire throttle systems. Being part of the Volvo Group, Renault Trucks share certain powertrain technologies with Volvo.

Recommended product:

• Current T and T High (Euro VI): DBW Speed Limiter
• Latest T range variants may use SENT protocol — contact AutoKontrol for a free compatibility check to confirm whether SENT Speed Limiter or DBW Speed Limiter is required

Renault C

The C range is Renault’s construction-oriented truck, designed for tipper, mixer, and heavy-duty site operations. It uses the same DTI engine range as the T with electronic throttle control.

Recommended product:

• Current C range (Euro VI): DBW Speed Limiter

For construction operators, AutoKontrol can configure lower maximum speed settings for site-specific safety requirements — a common request for tippers and mixers working on controlled sites.

Renault K

The K range is Renault’s most rugged construction truck, designed for the most demanding off-road conditions. It shares its engine platform with the C and T ranges.

Recommended product:

• Current K range (Euro VI): DBW Speed Limiter

Renault D and D Wide

The D range covers urban and regional distribution from 7.5 to 19 tonnes. The D Wide extends this with a wider cab for driver comfort on medium-distance work. Both use Renault’s DTI 5 and DTI 8 engines with electronic throttle.

Recommended product:

• Current D and D Wide (Euro VI): DBW Speed Limiter
• Older D models with electronic throttle: DBW Speed Limiter
• Older models with cable throttle: System 80 Speed Limiter

The D range is increasingly available in electric variants (D E-Tech and D Wide E-Tech). Contact AutoKontrol for a free compatibility check on electric Renault Trucks — our engineering team has developed solutions for electric drivetrains.

For any Renault Trucks model where you need confirmation of the throttle type, contact AutoKontrol for a free check. We can verify the correct product from your registration or chassis number.

Additional Solutions for Renault Trucks Fleets

TrackSpeed: Speed Limiting with GPS Tracking

TrackSpeed combines an AutoKontrol speed limiter with ScorpionTrack Fleet GPS tracking in one installation. Renault Trucks fleet operators get verified speed limiter compliance, live vehicle tracking, route data, and driver behaviour analytics through a single platform.

For mixed Renault fleets — D Series for urban work, T High for long haul — TrackSpeed provides consistent speed management oversight across every vehicle.

GeoKontrol 2: Geofenced Speed Control

GeoKontrol 2 provides automatic speed reduction based on GPS location. When a Renault truck enters a geofenced zone — a 20mph residential street, a depot with a 5mph limit, or a customer site — GeoKontrol 2 reduces the maximum speed without any driver input.

GeoKontrol 2 is a standalone IoT device. No telematics subscription is needed. Fleet managers create custom zones or use automatic zone detection.

Speed Limiter Regulations for HGVs

All goods vehicles over 3.5 tonnes on UK and EU roads must have a speed limiter fitted and operational:

• 3.5 to 7.5 tonnes: Limited to 56 mph (90 km/h)
• Over 7.5 tonnes: Limited to 56 mph (90 km/h)

ECE Regulation 89 (R89) sets the standard. The DVSA enforces compliance in the UK. Non-compliance can lead to prohibition notices, fixed penalties, and O-licence consequences.

EU General Safety Regulation (EU 2019/2144) introduces Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) requirements for new type approvals, which will affect Renault Trucks’ future model releases and reinforce the need for robust speed management across existing fleets.
