Description[]
The Renault Sport R.S. 01 is a grand touring race car built by Renault Sport for use in grand touring racing competition. Designed by Akio Shimizu, the car is powered by a 3.8L Nissan VR38DETT twin-turbocharged V6 mated to a 7-speed Sadev transmission. The car was designed specifically to compete in the short-lived Renault Sport Trophy, although it would later receive homologation by the SRO Motorsports Group to compete in GT3 class races; the car never received homologation by the FIA due to a lack of a road-going counterpart. The R.S. 01 competed irregularly in GT3 racing until 2021 with some success.
The base of the casting reads Renault Sport RS; this was changed for 2023 to Renault Sport R.S. 01.
