Renault Type JM

The Renault Type JM was an interwar passenger car from Renault, also called the 12 CV, and the national authority approved it on 15 July 1921. It replaced the Renault Type EU and production ended in 1923. A water cooled four cylinder engine with an 80 millimetre bore and a 140 millimetre stroke displaced 2,815 cubic centimetres, sent to the rear axle by a cardan shaft, for a stated top speed of 44 to 60 kilometres per hour depending on the gearing. On a wheelbase of 310.5 centimetres the car was 437.1 centimetres long and 161.5 centimetres wide, and the bare chassis weighed 800 kilograms. Buyers could choose torpedo and limousine bodies.
