Renault Fuego

The Renault Fuego is a four-seater, three-door hatchback produced by French automaker Renault from 1980 to 1992, replacing the Renault 15 and 17 coupés of the 1970s. The Renault Fuego was heavily based on the Renault 18, sharing its floorpan and drivetrain, but featuring a new front suspension design. The design kept the familiar double wishbone layout common with the Renault 18 but no parts were interchangeable and the design incorporated negative scrub radius geometry. The new suspension design would later be introduced in the facelifted Renault 18, and with minor refinements , it was... used in the Renault 25. In 1984, the Fuego dashboard was added to the facelifted R18. European production continued into 1986 , while Renault Argentina produced the "Fuego GTA Max" up into 1992. The Fuego was sold in the United States through American Motors dealers from 1982 to 1985 inclusive.
