The story of the original model
The Renault Suprastella was launched in 1938 as the flagship of the Renault range, embodying the pinnacle of French automotive luxury. This high-end sedan was intended to compete with the most prestigious European automobiles of the time, with its elegant lines and exceptional finishes.
Powered by a 5.4-liter inline-8 engine developing 110 horsepower, the Suprastella offered remarkable performance for its time. Its sophisticated chassis and spacious body made it the preferred choice of wealthy individuals and high-ranking officials. Production was unfortunately interrupted by the war, making this model particularly rare and sought-after.
Although produced in limited quantities, the Suprastella made an impression with its exceptional standing and avant-garde design, establishing Renault as a manufacturer capable of competing with the biggest names in European luxury automobiles.
Renault in the late 1930s
By 1938, Renault was already an institution in the French automotive industry, founded by Louis Renault in 1898. The diamond brand had established itself as a major player in both the popular market and among high-end customers, diversifying its production to reach all segments.
This period marked Renault's heyday before World War II. The company employed thousands of workers in its Boulogne-Billancourt factories and had developed a renowned expertise in technical innovation. The Suprastella perfectly represented the brand's ambition for prestige , demonstrating its ability to create top-quality automobiles, rivaling the most refined German and Italian productions of the time.
A car with a tragic destiny
The history of the Renault Suprastella is closely linked to the upheavals of the late 1930s. Presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1938, this prestigious sedan aroused the admiration of visitors with its elegance and exceptional technical refinement.
Unfortunately, orders were quickly interrupted by France's entry into the war in 1939. Most of the examples produced were requisitioned by the authorities or hidden by their owners during the Occupation. Some Suprastellas even served as official vehicles for high-ranking officials, testifying to their intact prestige despite the dramatic circumstances.
Today, the rare surviving examples of the Suprastella are preserved in museums or are part of prestigious private collections. This exceptional rarity makes each model car faithfully reproducing this model a particularly sought-after collector's item, helping to preserve the memory of this exceptional automobile that embodied the pre-war French art of living.
The blue color of this model car is reminiscent of that worn by Louis Renault's own personal copy, adding an additional historical dimension to this quality reproduction.

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.

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).
