Before the War, Renault was an industry leader

The model boasted a unique style with its distinctive bonnet, elongated to house an increasingly powerful engine, and its carefully crafted coachwork. Equipped with a constant-level carburettor, the Renault Type EF also featured a high-tension magneto ignition with rotating armature, a gearbox with four forward gears, as well as shock absorbers on the underslung chassis.
