Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Renault's own high-performance 4CV, the 1063, was built in small numbers from 1951 with a considerably enhanced version of the 747 cc Billancourt engine. A works-entered 1063 driven by François Landon and André Briat won the up-to-750 cc class at the 1951 Le Mans 24 Hours by three laps.
