Renault 4TL/GTL

When the new little Renault first appeared at the Paris Auto Show in late 1961, it was hailed as revolutionary! There, the manufacturer with the diamond logo not only unveiled a new concept, but also a new approach to the automobile. Everything in the Renault 4 was revolutionary for a car in its segment. This four-cylinder economy car with a sealed, maintenance-free cooling circuit boasted front-wheel drive (a first for Renault on a passenger car), a platform to which the body was bolted, four wheels with independent suspension.
