Renault Master vs Renault Trafic

The Renault Master starts from $55,990 before on-road costs, while the Renault Trafic opens at $56,990. That makes the Renault Master the more affordable entry point by $1,000.

Once you factor in stamp duty, registration, CTP insurance, and dealer delivery, expect to add roughly 8-12% on top of the RRP depending on your state. That puts estimated driveaway prices in the ballpark of $61,589 and $62,689 respectively.

ANCAP safety ratings have not been published for both models yet. We will update this section when crash test results are available.

Both come with modern infotainment systems.

The Renault Master stands out with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto that you will not find on the Renault Trafic. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.

The Renault Master uses a 2.0L Blue dCi turbo-diesel producing 125kW and 380Nm of torque, sent through a 9-speed automatic to a FWD layout.

The Renault Trafic responds with a Diesel making 125kW and 380Nm, paired to a automatic driving the front wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 11.2 seconds.

Power output is identical on paper, so the difference comes down to tuning, weight distribution, and suspension. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.

The Renault Master measures 5,685mm long on a 3,585mm wheelbase, 686mm longer than the Renault Trafic at 4,999mm (3,098mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Renault Master generally means more rear legroom.

For towing, the Renault Trafic leads with a 2,500kg braked capacity vs 2,000kg. That 500kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.

Running cost data is not yet available for both models. We will update when figures are confirmed.

Warranty: 5 years (Renault Master) vs 5 years (Renault Trafic). Both match on warranty length.
