1921 Renault Type JP Model 45 by Kellnerp>

The Type JP was the largest and most impressive automobile ever manufactured by Renault. It had a wheelbase that measured over 12 feet and it carried impressive custom coachwork. One example was purchased for the President of France. Many other examples were used by both business and government leaders of France.

In modern times, there are only four or five examples known to exist, and most are in the care of the world's top automotive collection.

This example is powered by a 9.1 liter six-cylinder engine that produces 140 horsepower and is mated to a four-speed manual transmission. There are servo-assisted drum brakes and a semi-elliptic leaf spring suspension. Its large, elegant, and stately body is the work of Carrosserie Kellner.
