Renault 15 is an iconic model from the 70s for the diamond-shaped brand. Derived from Renault 12, Renault 15 was launched in 1971 and won over motorists with its original design and versatility. The car had a very modern style for its time, designed by Michel Boué (the designer behind Renault 5), under the guidance of Gaston Juchet.

"Renault 15 is a true coupé. For those who can't do without a saloon." This slogan highlights what made the model different, as it combined the benefits of a coupé with the interior space of a saloon. Another advert stated: "4 seats. 7 hp. A real boot. That's how Renault sees coupés."

It's difficult to talk about Renault 15 without mentioning Renault 17. Renault 15 stood out with its large glazed area offering panoramic visibility, while the rear side panel grilles of Renault 17 made the rear side windows much shorter and bevelled, giving it a sportier look (it would also be offered as a convertible).
