The Renault 4CV played an important role in post-war European mobility. Introduced shortly after World War II, it became one of France’s first mass-produced cars and helped motorize a generation. Its compact dimensions, rear-engine layout and light weight made it practical for city use while still offering space for four occupants. The 4CV quickly gained popularity not only in France but also across Europe, thanks to its reliability and affordable running costs. Today, it is appreciated by collectors for its friendly design, historical significance and engaging driving experience. The model represents a key chapter in Renault’s heritage and remains a recognizable classic on European roads and at vintage car events.
