Renault 9 & 11
The Renault 9 and Renault 11 are two small family cars produced by the French manufacturer Renault for model years 1981-1988 in sedan (Renault 9) and hatchback (Renault 11) configurations — both were styled by prominent French automobile designer, Robert Opron.
Variants were manufactured by American Motors Corporation (AMC), as the Renault Alliance (1983–1987) and Renault Encore (1984–1987) for the North American market — as well as for the Colombian market from 1983-1999.
The models use a transverse front-wheel drive engine configuration and feature four-wheel independent suspension. They were chosen the European Car of the Year for 1982, as well as the Motor Trend Car of the Year.
