The original model: symbol of Renault luxury
The Renault Reinastella was launched in 1928 to meet the growing demand for prestige vehicles in the French market. This high-end model was designed to compete with large European and American luxury sedans . With its 4.2-liter 6-cylinder engine, the Reinastella developed remarkable power for the time, allowing it to reach appreciable speeds while maintaining exceptional driving comfort.
The 1932 Type RM 2 represented the culmination of this prestigious lineage. It stood out for its elegant bodywork, its meticulous finishing touches, and its spacious interior adorned with noble materials. This automobile perfectly embodied the French art of living and Renault 's expertise in exceptional vehicles.
The commercial success of the Reinastella confirmed Renault's position in the luxury automotive segment . It equipped the garages of many personalities of the time and helped to establish the international reputation of the diamond brand.
Renault: pioneer of the French automobile industry
By the early 1930s , Renault had already established itself as one of Europe's most innovative car manufacturers. Founded by Louis Renault in 1898, the brand had developed remarkable expertise in all segments, from utility vehicles to racing cars and prestige vehicles . The Reinastella was part of this diversification strategy that enabled Renault to weather the economic turbulence of the interwar period.
The Billancourt-based company relied on technical innovation and style to attract a demanding clientele. Renault engineers constantly developed new mechanical solutions, while partner coachbuilders created ever more elegant lines. This philosophy was fully reflected in the Reinastella, a true technological and aesthetic showcase for the brand.
The 1930s also marked Renault's international expansion, with exports to many European countries and industrial establishments abroad. The Reinastella participated in this conquest of foreign markets, demonstrating French expertise in luxury automobiles.
A car that bears witness to its time
The Renault Reinastella was much more than just a luxury automobile: it became a true social symbol of the interwar period. In the 1930s , owning a Reinastella was a sign of success and refined taste. It circulated in the beautiful districts of Paris as well as on the roads of the Côte d'Azur, transporting influential businessmen, famous artists, and members of the European aristocracy.
A particularly interesting anecdote tells of a wealthy Parisian industrialist who commissioned a Reinastella specially bodied for his business trips . The interior was fitted out as a real mobile office, with a retractable writing desk and integrated document holders. This extensive customization perfectly illustrated the adaptability of the Reinastella chassis to the most sophisticated demands.
The Reinastella also made its mark on the history of French cinema. Several examples were used in films of the time, helping to forge the glamorous image of the French automobile. These cinematic appearances reinforced the brand's prestige and permanently inscribed the Reinastella in the collective imagination as the embodiment of French automotive luxury.
Even today, rare authentic Reinastellas fetch considerable sums at classic car auctions. This belated recognition confirms the exceptional heritage value of this model, which continued to be driven well after the war, gradually becoming one of the most sought-after symbols of pre-1940 French motoring .
