Why it stands out

The Renault Trafic is a medium van available as a panel van or crew van, and the current third generation has been on sale since 2014 with a major refresh in 2019. Renault now offers one 2.0-litre dCi turbodiesel engine in various states of tune, with the lead dCi 120 producing 118bhp, and the range is praised for being refined, reasonably frugal and comfortable on longer journeys. The panel van comes in a variety of roof heights and chassis lengths, while the crew van adds rear windows and seats.

It is not as polished inside as some rivals, and the cabin still uses plenty of tough but scratchy plastics. The door bins are tiny and there are not enough storage spots for everyday items. Its light steering feels very disconnected and vague at speed, and the tall suspension does little to reduce body roll when the load area is empty.

Best for: Buyers who want a hard-working medium van with plenty of body-style choice, decent comfort and strong value.

Not ideal for: Buyers who want the most car-like driving experience or the most generous payload in the class.

Expert Pros & Cons (per CarGurus review team)

The verdict

You should buy this car if: You want a comfortable, versatile van with frugal diesel engines and a strong value-for-money appeal.

Consider alternatives if: You need the most polished interior, the highest payload or a more car-like driving experience.

Competitive position: The Renault Trafic sits below the Volkswagen Transporter for polish and behind Ford’s latest Transit Custom for maximum payload. It still stands out for comfort, practicality and value, and its smooth automatic gearbox adds to its appeal. That makes it a strong choice for buyers who want a capable medium van without paying for the most lavish rivals.
