Renault AK 90CV
motor vehicle
The Renault AK 90CV was a race car manufactured between 1906 and 1908 by French car maker Renault. It was also known as Renault Grand Prix de l'A.C.F. (Renault Grand Prix of the Automobile Club de France). The A.C.F. Grand Prix was created in 1906, where Renault and the other racing leaders like Mercedes-Benz started racing again after the 1903 tragedy where Marcel Renault and nine other people lost their lives.
Renault adopted Michelin tyres for the car. Michelin tyres were also used one hundred years later on Renault's 2006 World Championship winning Renault R26 Formula One car.
Ferenc Szisz won the first A.C.F. Grand Prix race on June 27, 1906, with an average speed of 101.195 km/h (62.880 mph).

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Renault AK 90CV”, the useful work is to connect “motor vehicle” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 1, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q2058369. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1906, 1908, 1903 and 2006.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
