The '''Renault 19''' is a [[small family car]] that was produced by the French car manufacturer [[Renault]] between 1988 and 1996. In Turkey and in Argentina, production continued until 2000. The internal development code for the 19 was '''X53''', with the five door receiving the ''B53'' chassis code, the three door being the ''C53'', the Chamade the ''L53'', and the Cabriolet the ''D53''.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.mobilverzeichnis.de/renault_Modelluebersicht.htm | work = Mobilverzeichnis | title = Modellübersicht Renault | trans-title = Renault model listing | language = de | access-date = 27 March 2013 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121005153540/http://www.mobilverzeichnis.de/renault_Modelluebersicht.htm | archive-date = 5 October 2012 }}</ref>

==Overview==
The R19 was presented in June 1988,<ref name="AR91">{{cite book | title = Automobil Revue 1991 | editor-last = Büschi | editor-first = Hans-Ulrich | publisher = Hallwag AG | location = Berne, Switzerland | language = de, fr | page = 509 | volume = 86 |date=March 1991 | isbn = 3-444-00514-8 }}</ref> with sales in the domestic French market beginning in September 1988.<ref>{{cite journal|first=Stewart | last = McNee|title=Renault chases rivals|journal=Evening Times|issue=35,171|date=22 July 1988|page =40|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=tRQ-AAAAIBAJ&pg=5190,5232894&dq=renault-19&hl=en}}</ref> It was the replacement for the [[Renault 9/11|9 and 11]], both of which were ageing and outdated by the end of the 1980s. The R19 went on sale in right hand drive form for the British market in February 1989.

The R19 was styled by [[Giorgetto Giugiaro]], featuring Renault's new E-type (or "Energy") 1.4&nbsp;L engine and F type 1.7&nbsp;L versions. Base models originally used the [[Overhead valve|OHV]] C-type [[Renault Cléon engine|Cléon]] 1.2 and 1.4&nbsp;L engines, depending on the market. While originally only available with an atmospheric diesel engine, a turbocharged version appeared in the beginning of 1992.<ref name="AR92">{{cite book | title = Automobil Revue 1992 | editor-last = Büschi | editor-first = Hans-Ulrich | publisher = Hallwag AG | location = Berne, Switzerland | language = de, fr | page = 490 | volume = 87 |date=5 March 1992 | isbn = 3-444-00539-3 }}</ref>

Intended to be Renault's last numeric named car, the 19 ushered in a new naming policy, with the [[sedan (car)|saloon]] versions of the 19 being known as the 19 Chamade, to distinguish them from the [[hatchback]]s. The saloon version was launched in 1989.<ref name="AR91"/> In many markets, the Chamade badge was dropped following the facelift of 1992, with some replacing it with the "Europa" tag. The 19 Chamade customers were more often men, more often married and more rural and older than R19 [[hatchback]] buyers.<ref>{{Cite news|date=June 1992|title=Les Nouvelles Renault 19 Tricorps|work=Savoir}}</ref>

In 1991, a [[convertible (car)|convertible]] bodystyle built by [[Karmann]] was first shown; only a small number of these were built with the Phase I design as it was facelifted shortly thereafter. The convertible version went on sale in the beginning of 1992; it was only available with the two most powerful engine options.<ref>''Automobil Revue 1992'', pp. 490-492</ref> Although the R19's exterior design (which was relatively conservative, like that of the [[Renault 9/11]]) received a muted response, it was praised for its interior comfort and handling.{{Citation needed|date=May 2009}}

For the fuel injected top versions, a four-speed automatic transmission became available in the fall of 1990. Lesser versions still made do with four- or five-speed manuals, or a three-speed automatic.<ref name="AR91"/>

===Facelift===
In the summer of 1992, a revamped model was introduced with a substantially restyled front and rear, including a new dashboard and interior — although [[Left- and right-hand traffic|right-hand drive]] models retained the original dashboard from the Phase 1.

With the facelift, smaller "Energy" series units gradually replaced the old pushrod items, and 1.8&nbsp;litre engines appeared at the top of the lineup, where they replaced the more powerful 1.7 units (the F3N).<ref name="AR94">{{cite book | title = Automobil Revue 1994 | editor-last = Büschi | editor-first = Hans-Ulrich | publisher = Hallwag AG | location = Berne, Switzerland | language = de, fr | pages = 478–479 | volume = 89 |date=10 March 1994 | isbn = 3-444-00584-9 }}</ref> The R19 was sold in most of Europe until 1996, and was produced for some South American markets in [[Argentina]] until 2000 and for the Andean markets in [[Colombia]] until 2001.
Turkish production lasted a little longer than in the rest of Europe, also until the year 2000. The R19's platform and running gear would continue to be used in its replacement, the first generation [[Renault Mégane]], which lasted for seven years.

The Renault 19 was awarded the 1989 Car of the Year in Spain and Germany, 1990 [[Semperit Irish Car of the Year|Car of the Year in Ireland]], and 1993 Car of the Year in Argentina. It was sold in limited numbers in Japan through the [[Yanase (car dealership)|Yanase Import Dealerships]]. The name "Chamade" wasn't used on Japanese-market saloons because it was deemed too similar to the [[Daihatsu Charade]], so these were called "Europa" instead. San Fu Motors in Taiwan began building two versions of the R19 locally in early 1990, aiming for a monthly output of 1,000 cars.<ref name=Wards90>{{cite book | ref = WYB90 | title=Ward's Automotive Yearbook 1990 | publisher = Ward's Communications, Inc | location = Detroit, MI | editor-last1 = Stark | editor-first1 = Harry A. | editor-last2 = Bush | editor-first2 = James W. | volume = 52 | date = 1990 | page = 293 | isbn = ((0910589010)) }}</ref>

The R19 did well in Germany, a market French carmakers always had a hard time cracking. It was the best selling imported car in [[West Germany]] in 1990 and then in [[German reunification|re-united]] [[Germany]] from 1991 to 1994.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Gasnier|first=Matt|date=1991-01-12|title=West Germany 1990: Golf and Kadett dominate, Vectra up|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/1991/01/west-germany-1990-golf-and-kadett-dominate-vectra-up/|access-date=2021-06-23|website=Best Selling Cars Blog|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Gasnier|first=Matt|date=1992-01-12|title=Germany 1991: East & West reunite, VW Golf and Opel Kadett lead|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/1992/01/germany-1991-east-west-reunite-vw-golf-and-opel-kadett-lead/|access-date=2021-06-23|website=Best Selling Cars Blog|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Gasnier|first=Matt|date=1993-06-12|title=Germany 1992: VW Golf III and Opel Astra gear up|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/1993/06/germany-1992-vw-golf-iii-and-opel-astra-gear-up/|access-date=2021-06-23|website=Best Selling Cars Blog|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Gasnier|first=Matt|date=1994-01-12|title=Germany 1993: BMW 3 Series on the podium for the first time|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/1994/01/germany-1993-bmw-3-series-on-the-podium-for-the-first-time/|access-date=2021-06-23|website=Best Selling Cars Blog|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Gasnier|first=Matt|date=1995-01-12|title=Germany 1994: VW Golf leads, Mercedes C Class shines|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/1995/01/germany-1994-vw-golf-leads-mercedes-c-class-shines/|access-date=2021-06-23|website=Best Selling Cars Blog|language=en-US}}</ref><ref name=Ren19lautWelt>{{cite news |title=Tradition: 30 Jahre Renault 19 |date=29 October 2018 |url=https://www.welt.de/motor/news/article182913232/Der-mit-dem-Golf-tanzte-Tradition-30-Jahre-Renault-19.html |work= Der Welt |publisher=Axel Springer SE |author=SPS |accessdate=23 June 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=1992-02-19|title=Le succès de Renault ne se dément pas en Allemagne|url=https://www.lesechos.fr/1992/02/le-succes-de-renault-ne-se-dement-pas-en-allemagne-921218|access-date=2021-06-24|website=Les Echos|language=fr}}</ref>

===16S===
The '''Renault 19 16S''' (16V in some countries) was first shown towards the very end of 1988.<ref name="QR0189">{{cite magazine | magazine = Quattroruote | title = Scavalcato il Turbo | trans-title = Skipping the turbo | language = it | date = January 1989 | volume = 34 | issue = 399 | publisher = Editoriale Domus | location = Milan, Italy | editor-first = Raffaele | editor-last = Mastrostefano | page = 120 }}</ref> It was only actually added to the lineup in the autumn of 1990,<ref name="AR91"/> and was the only Renault 19 with a 16 valve engine. It had a distinctive air inlet on the bonnet (this did not appear on the earliest models), a rear spoiler, 15&nbsp;inch Speedline SL401 alloy wheels, side skirts, twin headlamps, [[Recaro]] bucket seats with optional leather trim, four in one [[exhaust manifold]] and Bendix ABS braking system with optional [[trip computer]], aircon and electric sunroof. The "'''S'''" is for ''Soupapes'', French for valves.

Its rev happy F7P engine, which, along with the advanced [[Renix]] ECU, made it faster and more fuel efficient compared to most competitors. The braking system was upgraded to include {{convert|259|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} vented discs on the front and {{convert|237|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} discs on the rear as well as an uprated lower suspension setup and front [[strut bar]]. Period tests praised the car's handling on curvy roads but criticized its high speed stability and noise levels, in part due to very low gearing.<ref name=TV0591.11>{{cite magazine | ref = RC91 | title = Krymper när vägen växer | trans-title = Shrinks as the road grows | language = sv | magazine = [[Teknikens Värld]] | publisher = Specialtidningsförlaget AB | location = Stockholm, Sweden | page = 11 | date = 1991-03-07 | issue = 5 | volume = 43 | first = Robert | last = Collin }}</ref>

Phase 1 editions benefited from unique front and rear bumpers with front indicators relocated into the bumpers to allow for the twin headlamps, while the Phase 2 retained the original bumpers found throughout the range but added colour coded tops, rubber inserts, and a discreet lower splitter. All bodystyles were offered with the 16 valve engine at one time or another, but were not available in all markets.

The Phase 2 models gear ratios were also revised, to allow for the extra weight found in the safety equipment the later models carried. The last models (1995 to 1996) were called Executive and came with leather interior as standard.

Renault claimed an acceleration from 0 to {{convert|100|km/h|mi/h|abbr=on}} of 8.2 seconds for the non-catalysed version with {{convert|140|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}.<ref>''Automobil Revue 1991'', p. 511</ref> This engine was only available in the Phase 1 model. The catalysed model boasted {{convert|137|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and a top speed of {{convert|215|km/h|mph|abbr=on}}, and a claimed 0 to 100&nbsp;km/h time of 8.9 seconds.

==Motorsport==
[[Renault Sport]] used the 19 in the [[British Touring Car Championship]] in 1993, driven by [[Alain Menu]] and [[Tim Harvey]].  The car proved uncompetitive except in wet conditions, and was replaced with the [[Renault Laguna|Laguna]] for the 1994 season.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://media.alpineracing.com/-renault-laguna-btcc-1997-.html?d=1| title=Renault Laguna BTCC }}</ref>
