Renault Fuego
The Renault Fuego (Fire in Spanish) is a sports hatchback manufactured and marketed by Renault from 1980 to 1986, replacing the Renault 15 and 17 coupés of the 1970s. A total of 265,367 Fuegos were produced, approximately 85% of which were assembled in Maubeuge, France, from February 1980 until October 1985. Spanish production for European markets continued into 1986. Cars built in France were imported and marketed in the United States by American Motors Corporation (AMC). The Turbo version went on sale in the U.S. in 1982, a year before its launch in France.
