The Saviem SG2 was launched in 1965 to meet the growing needs of light and medium-duty freight transport. Designed by the Société Anonyme de Véhicules Industriels et d'Équipements Mécaniques, this truck embodied French modernity in the heavy goods vehicle sector. Its distinctive silhouette, with its forward-facing cab and sleek lines, made it a vehicle perfectly suited to urban and suburban deliveries.
Equipped with an economical diesel engine and optimized load capacity, the SG2 attracted hauliers with its reliability and versatility . Its modular design allowed for various body configurations, making it the ideal companion for delivery companies and commercial services. Its commercial success was immediate, with several thousand examples produced during its career.
Saviem was born in 1955 from the merger of Renault Véhicules Industriels and Somua, marking a decisive step in the history of the French automotive industry. This strategic alliance aimed to create a national giant capable of competing with European heavy-duty truck manufacturers. Based in Suresnes, the company quickly developed a complete range of industrial vehicles, from light commercial vehicles to heavy-duty trucks.
During the 1960s and 1970s, when SG2 was created, Saviem established itself as a major player in French transport . The brand benefited from Renault's technical expertise and Somua's industrial tradition to offer innovative vehicles. This period marked the peak of Saviem, which massively equipped French commercial fleets before its gradual integration into the Renault Trucks group.
The history of the Saviem SG2 is closely linked to the rise of mobile advertising in France. In the 1960s, companies discovered the tremendous potential of commercial vehicles as rolling advertising media. TEFAL, then expanding with its revolutionary innovations in household appliances, chose the Saviem SG2 to carry its colors on French roads.
These TEFAL trucks crisscrossed France, transforming each delivery into a communication operation . Their colorful liveries and catchy slogans made an impression far beyond mere customers. The impact was such that these vehicles became true brand ambassadors, helping to build TEFAL's image of modernity and quality.
This period corresponds to the golden age of French advertising, where creativity and audacity combined to win over consumers. The marriage between the industrial design of Saviem and the advertising aesthetic of TEFAL created a visual harmony that perfectly embodied the spirit of the Trente Glorieuses . These vehicles bear witness to a France in full modernization, where the automobile and household appliances symbolized progress and well-being.
Even today, these Saviem SG2 advertising vehicles evoke a particular nostalgia among collectors, recalling a time when advertising was an art and each vehicle told a brand and company story.
