Type D

[edit]

Text mentions the Type C being Renault's first 4-passenger car and the Type D is, if I understand correctly, the same car but with the stronger 5 HP engine and a "retractable roof". It is referred to as a "convertible in the side box which is misleading. These cars were called "Tonneau". Picture of the Type D clearly shows a three-passenger car with a top for the front seat, leaving the single passenger at the rear in the open. This style, in U.S. called "Roadster" or "Runabout", would be a "Phaeton" or a "Spyder" in France. --Chief tin cloud (talk) 10:30, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced De Dion-Bouton passage deleted

[edit]

Made the following change in the lead section: [1]. According to the article De Dion-Bouton the company left the motor car business between the thirties and the fifties. If realiable sources can be found that they still made motors for Renault up until the seventies, the passage can be reinserted. 83.253.13.90 (talk) 22:51, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
