Renault Type NE

The Renault Type NE was an interwar passenger car from Renault, also called the 15 CV, and the national authority approved it on 26 April 1924. It replaced the Renault Type ME. A water cooled four cylinder engine with an 85 millimetre bore and a 140 millimetre stroke displaced 3,178 cubic centimetres, sent to the rear axle by a cardan shaft, for a stated top speed of 48 to 60 kilometres per hour depending on the gearing. On a wheelbase of 338.8 centimetres the car was 438.3 centimetres long and 165.5 centimetres wide, and the bare chassis weighed 1,080 kilograms. Buyers could choose touring car and limousine bodies.
