Model history Unveiled to the public in 1946 and then produced in series from 1947, the Renault 4CV became one of the most iconic French cars of the post-war era. Compact, economical and designed to put motoring within the reach of a large section of the population, it featured a rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. Renault produced 1,105,547 units of the 4CV between 1947 and 1961, making it the first French car to exceed one million units produced. It also remained the best-selling car in France until 1955. The range underwent regular updates throughout its production run. From October 1950, the R1062 model succeeded the R1060 and featured an engine capacity reduced to approximately 748 cm³. The Grand Luxe version was fitted with a more powerful engine producing 21 ch, compared with lower power output in certain simpler versions. The engine is a water-cooled, rear-mounted, four-cylinder in-line unit, coupled with a three-speed manual gearbox and driving the rear wheels. This layout, combined with the 4CV’s compact dimensions and low weight, is one of the model’s key technical features. Our example This particular example was first registered on 2 April 1951 and bears the serial number 1522746. Its French registration document specifies type R1062, a rated power of 4 CV and four seats.
