1999 | Renault Sport Spider

Actually, the design and construction of the suspension is that of a racing car. From the outset the Spider was intended to be the basis for a new one-car racing series. Renault had been running these championships since the early 80s with the 5 Turbo, 21 Turbo, and Clio models.

The pedals of the Spider were adjustable as well as the seat so the driver could achieve a better driving position. Power for the Spider came from a version of the 2-litre F7R engine from the Clio Williams and Mégane Coupe, producing 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp). The weight of the windscreen model was 965kg and the small wind deflector model was 930kg.

Approximately 1640 cars were produced through 1999, with the addition of around 80 race only versions.
