The Saviem JL was a range of heavy/medium trucks manufactured by the French manufacturer Saviem, a subsidiary of Renault. [1] [2]
The Saviem JL range was based on the JL range from Somua. The JL was initially powered by engines from Alfa Romeo and other suppliers. In 1961, it adopted a revised front with double head lamps [2] and was fitted with the Fulgur diesel engines [1] assembled at the Limoges factory, which would be part of Saviem.
In 1963, as part of Saviem's agreements, some JL models incorporated MAN engines, changing its denomination and forming the new JM range. [2] The ones which preserved the Fulgur engines were renamed as S (S9). The JL denomination was still sporadically used afterwards.
When built by Somua, the JL was offered with a variety of engines, including Renaults, Henschels and Alfa Romeos. [2] In 1961, Saviem standardised the use of two Fulgur diesel units of 4.8L and 6.8L with a power outputs of 100 and 150 hp (74 and 110 kW) respectively. [1] [3]
