Renault Type AB

The Renault Type AB, also called the 14 CV, was an early passenger car from 1905 and the first time Renault used a model code of two letters. It was based on the Type X sold at the same time and came in two versions, the Type AB (a) with a wheelbase shorter than the 272 cm of the Type X (a) and the Type AB (b) with one longer than the 291 cm of the Type X (b), though exact figures are not recorded. A water-cooled four-cylinder engine with a 90 mm bore and 120 mm stroke displaced 3,054 cc and produced 14 PS, driving the rear axle by shaft. The article gives no price, weight or top speed for the model.
