Renault 1000 kg

Tuesday 22 September 2009
The Renault R2060/R2080 series was a natural development of the company’s Model
206E1, an attractive forward-control, all-steel panel van with rear-wheel drive and a capacity of 1000kg, which had been launched immediately after the War in 1945. Although the vehicle was an immediate success, within two years of its launch, it had been replaced by the muchimproved R2060. Known as the Goélette, the R2060 was powered by the somewhat oldfashioned Renault type 603 side-valve, four-cylinder 2.4-litre petrol engine which was also known as the ‘85’.

Technical data:
- engine: 4 cylinders
- capacity: 2142 cc
- horsepower: 64 HP
- gearbox: 4+1
- top speed: 80 km/h
