Peugeot 601
The Peugeot 601 was a range-topping car produced between 1934 and 1935 by Peugeot. It had its formal launch on 5 May 1934 and marked a return by the manufacturer to six-cylinder engines. The car was Peugeot's first entry into the luxury car market since 1932, after which the Peugeot Type 183, Peugeot Type 184, Peugeot Type 174 and Peugeot Type 176 had been discontinued. Together with the Peugeot 401 Eclipse, the very limited production 601 Eclipse was the first series produced car to be built (by Carrosserie Pourtout) as a coupé-convertible, with a retractable hardtop, that could be moved and stowed under a reverse-hinged rear luggage lid.
