As shown by its name, this model was built as a Parisian taxi. It earned its moment of glory as well as a nickname “the taxi of the Marne” on 6 September1914 when a thousand were requisitioned by General Gallieni, commandant of the garrison in Paris besieged by the German army led by Field-Marshal von Kluck, to carry two regiments to the front and take part in the battle that saved the capital and France.
