What are the differences between the Caravelle and the Floride?

One of them was more luxurious, but I don't know which. Thinking Caravelle.

There is a complete answer to this question made by sixcyl here.

But it doesn't make me feel safe enough to answer in this present case.

The airtake behind the door on the rear wing is characteristic of the Floride 1959-62. This one is a Coupé .

I think this is Floride Coupé 1959-62 [R1092]. It does not have the 2+2 outline of the 62+ Caravelle (European version) [R1131]; it is definitely pre-1963 when R E N A U L T letters replaced front badge and everything became Caravelle [R1133]. Also this
DynaMike wrote This is a Floride, recognisable by the roof line (on the Caravelle it was more edgy to make it a 4 seater) and the lack of louvres on top of the rear engine lid (the Floride had the Dauphine engine with the radiator in front, and air intakes on the side of the car, whereas the Caravelle had the R8 engine with the radiator at the rear and therefore louvres on top of the lid).

(again from this page). But I can't exclude 62-63 Floride S [R1131] as my knowledge stops short at that point.
