Recorded originFrance
ClassHistoric passenger, commercial and competition automobile
Power20 hp
First of the large four-cylinder Darracq passenger chassis in the documented 1903 program. It shared the maker's three-speed and shaft-drive architecture but was not the same vehicle as the later chain-drive 20/28, 1906 Type S or 1907 Type SS, all of which reused similar horsepower labels. Sparse period evidence supports the approximately 3.8-litre class without a safe exact capacity.
