“	Exclusive Series Fully upgrade the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo and the Renault R.S. 01 to unlock new Exclusive Series!	”
	— What's new in GT4 Update (v7.4).

The RENAULT R.S. 01 (or RENAULT SPORT R.S. 01) is a racing car manufactured by RENAULT, and is based on the RENAULT DEZIR. The R.S. 01 was originally used to compete in their one-make racing series, RENAULT Sport Trophy, until they decided to expand to GT3. The R.S. 01 is the most powerful one-make racer they have built, and is the only one that doesn't come from a production car.

The RENAULT R.S. 01 has a 3.8-liter VR38DETT twin-turbocharged 24-valve V6 engine sourced from the NISSAN GT-R. The engine has been slightly modified so the position of the engine can come from the middle, for a mid-engined configuration. This configuration is also longitudinal central. The engine has a redline of 6800 rpm that produces 550 bhp (brake horsepower).

In 2015, FORMULA 1® RED BULL driver Max Verstappen drove the R.S. 01 with his father Jos in Spa. Verstappen himself also has the R.S. 01 in his car collection.
