Renault 25 V6 Turbo
Launched in 1984, the Renault 25 succeeded the R20 and R30 with an elegant design by Robert Opron and Gaston Juchet, renowned for its remarkable aerodynamics (Cd 0.28). From the outset it offered a wide range of engines, but Renault aimed higher with a sporty, prestigious version. In 1985 came the 182 hp V6 Turbo, powered by the 2.5-litre PRV V6 boosted by a Garrett turbo. Capable of 220 km/h and 0–100 km/h in 7.7 s, it became one of the fastest grand tourers in Europe. In 1987, Renault strengthened its image with the 205 hp V6 Turbo, with optimised electronic management, reaching 230 km/h and 0–100 km/h in 7 s. This version, offered mainly in Baccara trim, stood out for its assertive luxury: full leather, wood inserts and a rich level of equipment. The R25 also innovated with its technology: ABS, power steering, voice synthesis and top-level comfort. Adopted by the French state as the presidential and ministerial car, it embodied national prestige and know-how. Today the V6 Turbo remains an icon: the 182 hp for its audacity, the 205 hp as the pinnacle of the French sporting grand tourer of the 80s.
The Renault 25 V6 Turbo engine
The Z7U is the turbocharged version of the 90° PRV V6, developed for the Renault 25 V6 Turbo from 1985. It derives from the naturally aspirated 2,458 cc Z7W block, but receives Garrett turbocharging and numerous specific adaptations. Cast-iron block, light-alloy cylinder heads, 6-bearing crankshaft, specific pistons. Forged steel con rods, redesigned combustion chambers and a compression ratio lowered to 7.6:1 to accept forced induction. One overhead camshaft per bank, chain-driven timing.
The turbocharger is a Garrett T3 A/R 0.63, air-cooled at the start of production then water-cooled, paired with an air-to-air intercooler. Fuelling is handled by Bendix electronic injection, with ignition fully managed by the ECU.
On the lubrication side, a higher-flow oil pump and an external oil cooler ensure reliability. Transmission is via a reinforced single-plate clutch and a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Power: 182 hp at 5,500 rpm (Phase 1), then 205 hp at 5,750 rpm (Phase 2), with maximum torque of 29 to 30 mkg available from 2,500 rpm. This engine took the R25 beyond 230 km/h and made it the flagship of French sporting saloons of the 80s.
