A revolutionary model in automotive history
The Renault 25 was born in 1984 from Renault's desire to conquer the luxury sedan segment, dominated by German brands. Designed to succeed the Renault 20/30, it represented a considerable technological leap with its avant-garde design by Marcello Gandini, the creator of the Lamborghini Countach.
This 4.73-meter-long sedan stands out for its revolutionary technical innovations: four-wheel steering on certain versions, sophisticated on-board electronics, and remarkable interior space. The GTS version, positioned in the middle of the range, offered generous equipment and balanced performance thanks to its 108-horsepower 2.2-liter engine.
Sold until 1992, the Renault 25 marked an era by democratizing technologies that were then reserved for very high-end vehicles. It laid the foundations for what would later become the Renault range of the 1990s .
Renault conquers the high-end market
In the late 1980s, Renault was undergoing a period of major transformation . Under the leadership of Raymond Lévy, the public company sought to restore its image by tackling premium segments. The Renault 25 was part of this ambitious strategy, alongside models such as the Espace and the future Clio.
This period corresponds to the golden age of innovation at Renault . The brand, with its expertise in Formula 1 where it dominated with its turbo engines, transposed its technological achievements onto its production models. The 25 thus benefited from considerable advances in aerodynamics, electronics and passive safety.
Renault's history, since its beginnings in 1898 with Louis Renault, finds in the 25 a new expression of its innovative genius. This sedan perfectly illustrates the French brand's ability to constantly reinvent its automotive approach .
The Renault 25, star of the roads and screens
The Renault 25 has made much more than automotive history: it has become a true cultural symbol of the 1980s . Its distinctive silhouette and premium positioning made it the car of choice for many political and business figures. François Mitterrand himself drove around in an armored presidential Renault 25.
In cinema, the 25 embodied the spirit of the French 1980s in numerous films. Its presence in productions such as "Tchao Pantin" with Coluche and in various television series of the time testifies to its iconic status. It represented French social success, a credible alternative to German sedans.
But perhaps the most memorable feature is its four-wheel steering system . This revolutionary technology, dubbed "4 Control," allowed the rear wheels to steer in the same direction as the front wheels at high speeds, significantly improving stability. At low speeds, they steered in the opposite direction to facilitate maneuvering.
This innovation, now widely available on many high-end vehicles, made the Renault 25 one of the most technologically advanced cars of its time . It foreshadowed the modern automobile and its electronic assistance systems, positioning Renault as a pioneer in a field that is now essential.
Complete your collection of French model cars
This Renault 25 GTS naturally finds its place in any collection dedicated to French model cars . It dialogues perfectly with other emblematic models of the diamond brand, creating a coherent whole which traces the stylistic and technological evolution of Renault.
Collectors with a passion for 1980s automobiles will find it an ideal complement to their Peugeot 505, Citroën CX, or other sedans from this golden decade. Its dark green hue, characteristic of the high-end finishes of the era, adds a remarkable touch of authenticity.
This model car is particularly aimed at fans of French sedans and collectors keen to preserve French automotive heritage. It also provides an excellent entry point for discovering the world of 1/43rd scale model cars , a reference scale offering the best compromise between detail and presentation space.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
