AHN History

Text by Jean Pierre Saulet

Build between Renault AGR (1937-1941) and the Renault Galion (1947-1965), the Renault AHN is presented in 1940. Deliveries began in 1941 ... to equip the Wehmacht. Three versions will be manufactured: AHN 1; AHN 2; AHN 3. The AHN 1 had the lights embedded in the front. Many of these AHN were sabotaged on the chain (sand in the crankcase, starters bursting after a few requests, servo defective mechanical brakes etc).

I remember being with my grandfather in early 1945 to recover in the Bois de Boulogne, he does not had not been away, a AHN 1 which had been abandoned there because in starter failure that new.

The following modèl the Renault AHN 2 were build from late 1944 and AHN 3 from 1946 to 1947. During the 1948 exhibition, the Renault AHS, 2,5 tons 4-cylinder engine was replaced by the first 1000 kg which will become late career "La Goelette". Renault AHN will be replaced by "Le Galion".

You can see two images of AHN1 by clicking on the following 2 links at the bottom, followed by a an AHN2 startup video.
