The Forest Intervention Vehicle
The Renault Fire Trucks were developed in the 1980s to meet the specific needs of fighting fires in forested areas. These specialized vehicles incorporate significant water transport capacities, high-pressure pumping systems, and engines suited for the challenging terrains typical of wooded areas.
Equipped with all-wheel drive and a reinforced chassis, these Renault trucks allow first response teams to quickly reach fire outbreaks, even in the steepest sectors. The Saône et Loire, a department with a rich forest heritage, has acquired several units to equip its rural rescue centers and ensure optimal coverage of its wooded territory.
The effectiveness of these vehicles in preventive and curative actions against forest fires has made them a central element of the departmental strategy for protecting Burgundy's natural spaces.
Renault and Specialized Vehicles
In the 1980s, Renault Industrial Vehicles actively developed its range of specialized vehicles intended for public and emergency services. This period coincided with the expansion of the French manufacturer’s heavy truck division, which sought to diversify its business beyond traditional commercial transport.
The diamond brand established itself as a key player in supplying Renault vehicles tailored to the specific needs of firefighters, gendarmes, and other public services. This commercial strategy allowed Renault to highlight its technical expertise while actively participating in equipping French civil security services, thereby enhancing its local presence and reputation for reliability.
A Historical Forestry Vocation
Saône et Loire possesses a millennial forestry vocation that explains the importance placed on combating forest fires in this Burgundy department. With nearly 200,000 hectares of forests, or about 23% of its total area, Saône et Loire hosts some of the most remarkable massifs in Burgundy, notably the domain forests of Cîteaux and Charolles.
The history of the department is closely linked to its forest resources, from the time of the Cistercian monks who developed a reasoned management of these wooded areas to the metallurgical industries of Creusot that heavily utilized local charcoal. This forest wealth thus required a particularly vigilant protection against the risks of fire, justifying the acquisition of specialized vehicles like this Renault truck.
The 1980s and 1990s saw significant modernization of fire-fighting resources in Saône et Loire, with the acquisition of efficient vehicles and the training of teams specialized in forest interventions, reflecting the department's commitment to preserving its exceptional natural heritage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
