From AutocadeRenault 9. 1981–89 (prod. N/A). 4-door sedan. F/F, 1108 cm³ (4 cyl. OHV), 1237, 1397, 1721 cm³ (4 cyl. OHC), 1595 cm³ (4 cyl. OHC diesel). The 9 was Renault's most convincing effort to produce a mid-sized saloon to fight the raft of Japanese imports being sold in Europe. It might be forgettable today, but impressed enough European motoring journalists to bag the 1982 Car of The Year award. In truth, that's more a reflection of how quiet a year 1981 was for new car launches - and today, you'd be hard pushed to find any left. Styled by Robert Opron, conventionally engineered, and produced in large numbers across the globe – by AMC in the USA and Renault in Colombia. Closely related to the Renault 11 hatchback, which at least had the advantage of looking distinctive.
