Renault Taxi Type AG

In 1905, the Compagnie Fran��aise des Automobiles de Place, which took the name of G7, launched a call for tenders for a fleet of ���automobile coaches��� with a view to replacing the 20,000 horse-drawn vehicles circulating in Paris. RENAULT wins the market with the Type AG equipped with an 8 hp twin-cylinder engine. Presented to the �����cole des mines��� (college of engineers) on September 26, 1905, the vehicle was ordered from this first year in 250 copies. Deliveries begin immediately, and the G7 places a new order for 1000 ���taxis��� in 1906, then 1500 in 1908. The AG-1 type offered by HELLER appeared in 1907.
