Chip tuning for Renault Kerax 280 DXi7 280hp (206kW) 1050Nm ECU
Renault Kerax (I) 280 DXi7 280hp (206kW) 1050Nm — mass-market diesel engine of the commercial segment of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance group (Франция, 1899). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 280 to 320 hp (+40 hp, +14%) and torque from 1050 to 1210 Nm (+160 Nm).
Renault is the core of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance (formed in 1999 and expanded in 2016). DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on Euro-6 Renault diesels.
Within the Renault-Nissan Alliance, ECUs are partly standardised, so some files carry over between brands. On older-generation Renault models, Stage 1 is done via OBD without bench. The Renault community in France and Eastern Europe offers a large pool of ready-made Stage files. High-output Renault Sport RS models sit in the sports segment, with solid headroom for Stage 1.
