The first series of tractors for agricultural use
came out just after the First World War. These tractors were based on
the FT–army tank, which were used in this war. The GP–type (on
caterpillar tracks) was the first type, which was directly derived
from the FT tank. Very soon, different versions came on the market,
under which a one equipped with a gas generator, and several with a
petrol or diesel engine.
The type called HO was the first tractor with
wheels. Over the years more different models were made, so Renault
could supply a suitable tractor to every sector. As far as it concerns
tractors, Renault co-oparates with several other brands, such as:
Motomeccanica,
Allis-Chalmers, Carraro, Mitsubishi and Claas. The
latter: Claas owns 80% of the Renault-Agricultural shares since 2004,
which means that from now on the Renault tractor will be sold only in
the Claas colours. The yellow ochre colour can only optional be
ordered, but will be available in France (for a while).
1919-1939
From 1919 till 1939 Renault used, just as was the case with the cars,
characters as type indication for trucks and buses, but with the
increasing number of models 1 character wasn’t enough, so later on 2
or 3 characters were used as type indication.

The outbreak of the second World War had a great influence on
industrial production in Europe. Because of feedstock shortage Renault
was forced to produce only a limited series of new tractors, stripped
of all its trimmings.

After this war Europe was
reconstructed with all one’s strength. There was a great demand for
tractors in order to bring the production of food to standard. World War
II didn’t leave Renault undamaged, moreover, the works had been bombed and
Louis Renault died under mysterious circumstances. A few months after
liberation the factory was brought under public ownership. A new model
came out, based on already existing techniques. Now 4 numerals were used
as type name. Renault used sources of power which came from their own
factory and from Hispano-Hercules and Perkins.

In the
fifties the mechanization of agriculture was well under way. Sales figures
were on the rise, as well as the average engine power. The whole new D- en
N-series were tailored to the demands of the modern farmer, and in 1956 the
diesel-engine was the most popular source of power, especially after the
introduction of the purpose-made agricultural diesel (red-dye diesel).
Renault purchased all its air-cooled engines at MWM (Motor Werke Mannheim)
in Germany, but also used water-cooled Perkins-engines, bought in the USA.
The type N stood for normal width, type E for narrow gauge and type V for
the wine grow version. It was from 1960 to 1963 that the Renault program
included the Motomeccanica Super 108, due to the great demand for even more
engine power.

Towards the end of 1962
Renault introduces the Super-series. First of all the Super 7, its
external features and technically being similar to the N-series.
Outwardly new, technically renewed and available in more different
engine powers were the Super 4 and the Super 5, every model
available in the normal, narrow-gauge and wine grow version. The
external features of the Super-Series were renewed in 1964 and two
new types came on the market, the Super 3 and Super 6, with a square
hood and higher rear mudguards as their most striking features. In
1965 all types got a D against their name, a changed grille, but it
was the lifting equipment that had changed most. In the D-Series the
so-called Tracto-control, a kind of automatic depth control of the
lifting equipment, was used for the first time. With one handle one
adjusts the required dept, and with the other handle one can lift
the machine up and down. The required depth is kept up automatically
as adjusted before. Tracto-control also works in case of unevenness
of the ground and maintains substantially the same depth level. The
first four-wheel drive Renault tractors appear on the market in
1966. The Super 2D series was equipped with an Indenor engine and
was available in two colours: (reddish)orange and red, and from the
introduction on the rims of the Super-D series are sprayed white.
And in 1963, as the programme’s peak, first the R385 has been
introduced and somewhat later the Master 1 en Master 2. The Master 1
was equipped with a 4 cylinder, air-cooled MWM-engine and the Master
2 with a 4 cylinder, liquid-cooled Saviem-engine, and with the
latter also available in a four-wheel drive version it where
powerful tractors. The Master TP (Travaux Publics = Public Works)
was a yellow, industrial version of the Master series, designed for,
among others, the French government.
