From July 7, 1961 the assembly lines of the 4CV are replaced by the R4 and it is on August 3 that the first Renault 4L can officially leave the production line of the island Seguin.
The Renault 4 (commonly called 4L) is a small popular car of great diffusion of simple and practical design. It is also the first application of traction on a passenger car of the Renault brand after this technique was adopted on the Estafette in 1959. The R4 was also the first station wagon in the world to have four doors, a large hatchback, a spacious luggage compartment and a modular interior.
The Renault 4 was so named because it was equipped with an engine of 4 fiscal horsepower; the Renault 3 which shared the same bodywork had an engine of 3 fiscal horsepower.
The R4 will be manufactured in France from 1961 to 1992
It will be produced a "Luxury" version called R4 L, it will be characterized by its third side window ("L" meaning "Limousine") as well as various accessories and chrome rings, making it more luxurious.
In France, the R4 was at the top of the sales from 1962 to 1965 (succeeding the Renault Dauphine), then in 1967 and 1968. The third best-selling model after the VW Beetle and the Ford T, it was sold in more than 100 countries and produced in 28 countries.
In January 2021, Renault evokes a possible return of the 4L in electric. The magazine Auto Express presented the new Renault 4 (but it will be an electric SUV) as a pre-production vehicle.
