Mythical fashion, more than 8 million vehicles produced between 1961 and 1992.
Who would have thought, in 1961, when it was launched, that the Renault 4 would have such a successful career? More than thirty years later, the figures (eight million produced between 1961 and 1992) and the facts speak for themselves: with its sharp-cut silhouette, its fifth door which was to become a model and its technical innovations, it attracted attention and seduction. It has also evolved: rustic in the countryside, it became ante in the city with the Parisienne version, utilitarian with the van, sporty with the Sinpar 4x4, and trendy with the Plein Air.
It will even be found as a daredevil on the tracks of the Paris Dakar. This book recounts the great and small stories of this popular car, the first front-wheel drive Renault, pioneer of a new breed of easy-going car that continues to be part of our daily lives.
