The Renault Voiturette (Renault Little Car) wis Renault's first iver produced automobile, an wis manufactured atween 1898 an 1903. The name wis uised for five models.
The first Voiturettes mounted De Dion-Bouton ingines, which wur uised till the mid seventies for several Renault automobiles. Continental tires wur uised for the caur, an curiosly, several modren Renaults still uise Continental.
The first Voiturette wis designed bi the maker's creautor Louis Renault in 1898. The first Voiturette wis sauld tae a friend o Louis' faither efter going for a ride wi Louis throu Lepic street on December 24, 1898. Twal mair caurs wur sauld that nicht. The main reason for the man tae buy the caur wis the incredible ability o the caur tae climb streets athoot ony difficulty an its fuel economy. The caur mounted a De Dion-Bouton 1 cylinder ingine, which alloued it tae reach a tap speed o 32 km/h (20 mph).
The Teep B wis basically the same Voiturette. Housomeivver, the difference wis the strange aspect o the caur, includin a ruif an twa doors. Louis Renault inventit the sedan in 1899.
The Teep C wis Renault's first fower-passenger caur. Efter several mechanical an physical modifications, the caur wis launched in 1900. The caur wis presentit in the 1900 Mondial de l'Automobile at Paris, presentin for the first time Renault Frères as an automobile maker.
The Teep D an E Voiturettes wur seemilar tae the Teep C but wi some differences, maistly the 5CV upgradit ingine. The Teep D wis identical tae the Teep C exceptin the retractable ruif an the Teep E showed a langer ruif than that o the Teep B, but athoot ony door. The Teep G uised the same chassis an body style than the Teep D an E but wi an upgradit ingine.
