BovyTwo-Cylinder Semi-Convertible Coupé
Production1902–1905
Recorded originBelgium
ClassSmall semi-convertible coupé
Collective identity for Albert Bovy's first simple, robust small cars, produced at Molenbeek around 1902 and described as semi-convertible two-cylinder coupés suitable for taxi work. No original type name, individual engine dimensions, transmission, wheelbase, price or body-by-body chronology survives. The model is separated from the visually De Dion-like 1906 voiturette because period-derived Belgian histories describe that as a later introduction.

How this is measured → This record contains useful sourced evidence, but it does not yet meet the reference-ready standard. Still needed: attributed imagery. Fields we cannot source stay empty rather than guessed.
Research notes
Only a few early passenger cars are reported; no exact total survives.
