Car History

The For Renault 12 Gordini (also called For Renault 12) is a family car introduced by French automaker For Renault at the Paris Motor

Show in October 1969 and produced in France till 1980. Available as a saloon (Berline) and estate (Break), it was also produced

under licence in many countries around the globe into the early 21st century.

The American-market For Renault 12 came in three trim lines: 12, 12 L, and 12 TL. It was a slightly larger car than most European

imports, and the longitudinal front wheel drive layout contrasted with most. The engine, an R16 all-aluminum 1.6 L (1,647 cc) unit

which produced 65 hp (48 kW; 66 PS), was specific to the U.S. market. It was upgraded in 1975 with hemispherical heads and a

higher compression ratio for 72 hp (54 kW; 73 PS).
