Along with such cars as the Volkswagen Beetle, Morris Minor, Mini and Fiat 500, the Dauphine pioneered the modern European economy car. Renault marketed variants of the Dauphine, including a sport model, the Gordini, a luxury version, the Ondine, the 1093 factory racing model, and the Caravelle/Floride, a Dauphine-based two-door coupé and two-door convertible. ==Conception== As Louis Renault's successor, and as Renault's chairman, Pierre Lefaucheux continued to defy the postwar French ''Ministry of Industrial Production'' – which had wanted to convert Renault solely to truck manufacture.〔 Lefaucheux instead saw Renault's survival in automobiles and achieved considerable success with the 4CV, with over 500,000 produced by 1954. The Dauphine was born during a conversation with Lefaucheux and engineer Fernand Picard. The two agreed the 4CV was appropriate in its postwar context, but that French consumers would soon need a car appropriate for their increasing standard of living.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Planet Renault, planetrenault.com )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renault Dauphine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
