Auto Renault: panoramica dei modelli

Renault, les sportives de série (2e édition)

With the 4 CV 1063, Régie Renault did not yet know it, but it had just outlined the broad outlines of a concept that has since become a real segment of the automobile: the little bomb, usable both on the open road and in everyday life, as well as in competition.
Certainly, the 1063 was still a machine with very confidential production and a presentation that was, all in all, quite radical. But the recipe is there: on the basis of a popular car, we graft a high-performance engine, capable of going beyond its power, we add a welcoming presentation for the die-hard sports enthusiast, and we sell it all at a very competitive price...

Over the years, Renault will refine and develop the concept: the high point obviously remains the fabulous, extraordinary and legendary R8 Gordini, but we should not forget all the other cars marked with the Diamond, which have left an indelible mark on the street, on the circuits, in rallies and in the memories of thousands of enthusiasts.

This book looks back at the history and career of these famous Dauphine, R12, but also R5 Alpine and other Clio and R21 turbo which, in their most powerful version, were and remain sports cars as popular as they are generous in driving sensations...
In this, the mass-produced Renault sports cars deserved a passionate tribute, through a book recalling their career and their great sporting moments...

Patrick Le Quement - 40 ans de design automobile

Patrick le Quément is one of the major figures in the history of contemporary design. Trained in Great Britain, he started out at Simca in the late 1960s before becoming an influential designer at Ford and Volkswagen and then transforming the image of Renault, where he headed design from 1988 to 2009.
This book tells the story of a man's life, his personality, the different episodes of his career, but also the major changes in his profession that have emerged over the course of his own journey. Through Patrick le Quément's career, we can read the rise of design relaying style, the recognition of the role of the designer in the company.
His example shapes the transformation of a function that must combine management skills and clear-sightedness in creation. Patrick le Quément opens up, talks about his entourage, his admirations, his mistrusts, his enthusiasms, his passion for automobiles.

Using often unpublished iconography, we discover how Renault has changed eras, how this brand has entered modernity through bold and relevant creations, many of which have become icons of European industry.
The future of the automobile industry is outlined in the background, its evolution at the pace of avatars and metamorphoses.
