In 1924 the Montlhery race track near Paris is open for car manufacturers to establish world speed records. Renault starts with production models before preparing in 1926 a special 40 CV Record prototype. The Renault 40 CV NM Record has a specially prepared chassis and a narrow closed body with single seat. The driver is thus installed in the middle of the car width. The engine is mounted in front of the radiator as usual for a Renault of this time. Access to the engine is by a fully enclosed hood that open in "alligator" mode providing full access to the mechanical elements.
