Autobleu (France) - AllCarIndex

Automobiles Autobleu was a French automobile manufacturer based in Paris, active from 1953 to 1957. The company initially focused on supplying components designed to enhance the appearance of the Renault 4CV. This venture evolved into the complete rebodying of the 4CV, which included the introduction of a two-door coupe featuring a wrap-around rear window, styled by the Italian design house Ghia. Although these coupes were produced in limited quantities, their high price—more than double that of a standard 4CV saloon—hampered sales.

In 1955, Autobleu announced a convertible model that was styled and constructed by the renowned coachbuilder Chapron. Additionally, the company produced a single example of a coupe based on the larger, front-engined Renault Frégate, with the bodywork designed and built by Boano. Unlike some contemporaries, such as Alpine, Autobleu did not modify the Renault engines to enhance performance, focusing instead on aesthetic modifications.

Despite its brief existence, Automobiles Autobleu contributed to the customization and personalization of Renault vehicles during the mid-20th century.
