Like many of the other car companies founded just before the turn of the 20th century, Renault made itself known for its revolutionary innovations - a concept that the company has employed time and again, to varying degrees of success. But how did three French brothers decide they had a shot in the automotive industry? What was it about Renault's innovative approach to business that keeps it balancing on a fine line between success and failure? And how could a company bearing a family name survive so much scandal? In this episode of Past Gas, we're going to find out - we’re talkin’ Renault.

My Peugeot pepper mill is 50 years old, still kicking, my mother bought it before my birth and I am in my 40s. Her Renault encore on the other hand lasted 5 years. Not sure why I posted this I guess I just wanted to fit in the convo, happy new year all.

I've got a Renaultsport Clio 197. I've owned multiple JDM nutters like the Impreza Turbo, Legacy GTB Twin Turbo and the MR2 Turbo. Those cars feel like more of an occasion when you drive them, but the Renaultsport is more fun to drive than all of them.

Some history...Pierre Lefaucheux was killed in a rollover while driving Renault's big sedan at the time, the Frégate. Yes, the Dauphine was rear-engined, and used the same engine as the 4CV, which you confused with the Citroën 2CV BTW... Good topic you guys picked for this installment!

My father had a Renault 20 TX and my great uncle had a Renault 30 V6. They were super comfy and were used by the French president. Regarding the rot... yes, my father's car engine would have lasted forever but he drew a line when his feet could go through the floor... like in the flintstones. But to be honest, that was after two decades of salty roads, Samsung actually makes cars too!

Renault also was one of the first manufacturers to build an affordable EV with the Renault Zoe in 2013 which was the most successful EV in Europe for several years. I gotta say I don't feel Ohm as a car brand name and i don't think any brand would want to use the unit of resistance as their Name...
