Im Dezember 1898 rollte mit der «Voiturette» das erste Fahrzeug der Marke auf die Strasse. Bereits der kleine Zweisitzer setzte mit seinem kettenlosen Direktantrieb einen neuen Standard im Automobilbau und lieferte damit die Blau- pause für die nächsten zwölf Jahrzehnte, in deren Verlauf Renault immer wieder mit Innovationen und neuen Fahrzeugkonzepten für Aufsehen sorgte. So ist 2018 auch das Jahr zahlreicher weiterer Jubiläen in der bewegten Renault Historie: Vor 80 Jahren kam der Juvaquatre auf den Markt, vor 60 Jahren debütierte die Floride, vor 40 Jahren triumphierte Renault in Le Mans, und vor 20 Jahren eröffnete das Unternehmen sein Technocentre, um nur ein paar davon zu nennen. Die vorliegende Übersicht beinhaltet die wichtigs- ten Renault Jubiläumstermine des Jahres. Viel Spass beim Blättern und Schmökern.

  • ALPINE Zeigt Klassiker
    AUTOMOBIL: FAHRZEUGE 20170209 ALPINE zeigt Klassiker Paris (F). Alpine zeigt auf der Rétromobile in Paris vom 8. bis 12. Februar 2017 sechs historische Modelle und die Studie Al- pine Vision. Die Klassiker Alpine A106, A108, A110, A310, GTA und A610 ge- ben einen Überblick über die Entwicklung der fran- zösischen Sportwagen- Kultmarke mit ihrem un- verkennbaren Design. Die Studie Alpine Vision schlägt eine Brücke von der Vergangenheit zur Zu- kunft des Mythos Alpine. Alpine A106, 1955-1961 Die legendären Alpine Sport- wagen ließ Markengründer Jean Rédélé aus bewährten Renault Komponenten bauen. Dank ihres geringen Gewichts machten sie sowohl im Renn- und Rallye-Sport als auch als Serienfahrzeug eine gute Fi- gur. Mit der A106 zeigt Alpine auf der Rétromobile das Mo- dell, das 1955 die Geschichte der Kultmarke einleitete. Auf das Chassis des Renault 4 CV setzte Rédélé einen Auf- bau aus Kunststoff und schuf damit die Blaupause für alle späteren Alpine Modelle. 1958 erschien die A108, zu- nächst als Cabriolet, ab 1959 Alpine A110, 1962-1977 auch als Hardtop-Variante und als Coupé 2+2. Die größten Rallye-Erfolge feierte Alpine mit der 1962 vorgestellten A110. Sie gewann die interna- tionale Markenmeisterschaft 1971 und die erste Rallye- Weltmeisterschaft 1973. Heu- te ist die Alpine A110, die 7.489-mal gebaut wurde, bei Sammlern besonders gefragt. Mit der ebenfalls in Paris ausgestellten A310 wandel- te sich ab 1971 die Alpine Formensprache von rund zu kantig.

  • RSAE 2010 All About!
    Newsletter # 12 16 June 2010 RENAULT Sport & A lpine EXPO Brisbane – 9 July to 18 July 2010 What’s it all about? If you missed the earlier RSAE Newsletters and are wondering what the RSAE is all about, please go to page 16. Something Old – Renault 4CV/750 Something New – Renault Koleos In the article on the Renault Nepta in Newsletter # 7, we asked the question: How do you get in? I bet that you didn’t guess!! It is a stunning looking car, but I doubt the practicality of those doors. Still, with a show car that is not intended for production, practicality comes a very poor second to stunning appearance which the Nepta undoubtedly achieves! Now, one more question: Who was Louise Berthe Magien? For the answer, see Newsletter # 13! June 2 (Reuters) - French carmaker Renault (RENA.PA) and its Japanese Partner Nissan (7201.T) should together become the world's third-biggest car manufacturer this year, Renault Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn told the Financial Times. CYCLICAL CONSUMER GOODS Ghosn was quoted as saying that he expected the global industry to make and sell 70 million light vehicles in 2010, a slight tweak to the 69-70 million forecast he gave at the Detroit Economic Club last week. "Very likely this year, we should be in the top three," Ghosn said in the FT's Wednesday edition, predicting sales of nearly 7 million cars from Renault, Nissan and their Russian partner Avtovaz (AVAZ.MM). Renault would rank behind Germany's Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) and its Japanese partner Suzuki (7269.T), and Japanese carmaker Toyota (7203.T).
