FactThis one heavy-duty Renault van wore at least five different names depending on the country — Mascott, Master, Master LDT, Master Maxi, and Master Propulsion — all for the same truck.
Renault Trucks marketed a heavy-duty 3.0 L diesel, rear-wheel-drive version of the Master as the Mascott (also Master Propulsion in France, Spain, Italy and Réunion, Master Pro in the Netherlands, Master LDT in Belgium, Master Maxi in Poland, and simply Master in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia and Slovenia). Available in Europe between 1999 and 2013, it was positioned between the Master and the larger Renault Midlum, in two states of tune, 120 PS (118 hp) with five speeds or 160 PS (158 hp) with six; it replaced the Renault B-series and was succeeded by the Renault Maxity.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The new Master doesn't commit to one fuel: Renault sells the fourth generation with a choice of internal combustion, electric, or hydrogen power.
In 2016, Renault gave its big city delivery van a dirt-road side hustle: an off-road, four-wheel-drive version of the Master.
This one heavy-duty Renault van wore at least five different names depending on the country — Mascott, Master, Master LDT, Master Maxi, and Master Propulsion — all for the same truck.
This Master shares its doors and other cab panels with a rival, the second Iveco Daily, under a deal the two signed in July 1994.
A 4x4 Master-based B90 truck ran the 1987 Paris-Dakar Rally, the rough-terrain test its round door handles never suggested.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
Chevy pitched the Astro as the anti-minivan, telling buyers life was too big for one, while it rode on a rear-wheel-drive truck frame.
The IIHS rated the Astro Poor in a 1996 crash test, yet 2001–2004 Astros later had the lowest driver death rate of any US passenger vehicle.
The boxy, unglamorous Astro quietly posted one of the best real-world safety records in America: IIHS found 2001-2004 models had the fewest driver deaths per million vehicles of any passenger vehicle on US roads.
The third-generation Tourneo Connect, released in Europe in October 2021, is a rebadged fourth-generation Volkswagen Caddy, assembled by Volkswagen in Poland.
Ford beat the 25% "chicken tax" by importing the Transit Connect as a passenger van — rear windows and seats included, then stripped out and recycled once it landed in the US.
Ford spent years in federal court over the second-gen Transit Connect: in June 2019 the US won its appeal, and judges ruled the van was cargo-only — ending Ford's workaround for the 'chicken tax.'
GM sold a rebadged Nissan NV200 as the Chevy City Express for four years, then killed it in 2018, citing weak sales and the fact that its parts weren't even compatible with GM's own parts catalog.
Its name is a pun: "S-Cargo" means "Small Cargo" but sounds just like escargot — French for snail, the shape the whole van was built to resemble.
