Lion Peugeot Type V2C2
The Lion-Peugeot Type V2C2 was an early motor car produced near Valentigney by the French auto-maker Lion-Peugeot in 1910. By this time Lion-Peugeot had been producing motor cars for four years, but the V2C2 was the first model with an engine of more than one cylinder. The V2C2 was propelled using a two-cylinder 1,325 cm³ four stroke engine, mounted ahead of the driver. A maximum 12 hp of power was delivered to the rear wheels. The car shared its 2,250 mm wheel base with the manufacturer's single cylinder Type VC2 model which had been launched a year earlier. The 3,200 mm body length provided space for between two and four people depending on the body specified. The range of different body types offered included a Phaeton, a Landaulet, a Limousine, a Coupé, a sports car and a small delivery van. 680 Type V2C2s were produced in 1910. The model was replaced in 1911 with the Lion-Peugeot Type V2C3.
