The first car produced was a carriage with a water-cooled vertical twin- cylinder front engine, sold in England as ‘La Silencieuse’, 1.5-litre capacity, automatic intake valves and controlled side exhaust valves. It was characterized by the gear stick control consisting of a long central lever. In 1903 came the company’s first 4-cylinder car, with a 3300 cc anti-clockwise 2-block engine with 2-side valve timing system and an output of 14 HP at 1100 rpm
