Renault Trucks is fitting vehicles from its T, C and K ranges with a new audio, navigation and entertainment system called Roadpad. Acting as an on-board assistant, it enables drivers to listen to music, use their telephones hands-free, drive safely and obtain navigation assistance.
Roadpad includes an HGV navigator, music streaming, cameras and hands-free telephone. It has the option of pairing two telephones simultaneously. Although they need to choose a priority phone for consulting contact lists or making calls, incoming calls or text messages can be received on both phones. The priority telephone can be swapped via the menu.
Roadpad also access to the Deezer streaming platform, enabling drivers to listen to radio programmes in DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting), as well as access to the weather forecast app and Google Maps. The system is pre-equipped for the installation of four cameras. Side cameras provide optimal visibility, whilst rear cameras increase work comfort, especially when coupling trailers.
