Renault Type Q

The Renault Type Q was an early passenger car from Renault, and the national authority approved it on 15 October 1903. A water cooled two cylinder engine with a 100 millimetre bore and a 120 millimetre stroke displaced 1,885 cubic centimetres and gave 10 to 16 PS, sent to the rear axle by a cardan shaft, for a stated top speed of 34 to 50 kilometres per hour depending on the gearing. On a wheelbase of 220 centimetres the car was 330 centimetres long and 150 centimetres wide, and the bare chassis weighed 700 kilograms. Buyers could choose tonneau bodies.
