The Renault Viva Grand Sport (branded as the Renault Vivastella Grand Sport before August 1935) was introduced alongside an updated version of the Nervastella in October 1934 at the Paris Motor Show.

The car was styled by Marcel Riffard who previously had been better known as an aircraft designer.

The Viva Grand Sport was powered by a 6-cylinder straight engine with 4,085 cc (249 cu in) displacement.

Renault concluded a contract with the high-profile pilot Hélène Boucher to promote the car.
