The Saviem H was a range of medium/heavy trucks manufactured by the French manufacturers Saviem and Renault Véhicules Industriels between 1977 and 1980.
The cab used for the H range was the 875, an extended version of the Club of Four's 870 cab introduced in the lighter weight J range. The new cab was 240mm larger than the original. The H was offered as a tractor unit (HB) or rigid (HM).[1]
The H range had a straight-six Berliet MID 06.20.30 engine, with a power output of 1850NaN0 at 2400 rpm. It also mounted two MAN engines, the R5 and the R6. The R5 was a straight-five engine with a power output of 1860NaN0 and the R6 was a straight-six with a power output of 2200NaN0.[1]
