Production1906
Recorded originFrance
ClassHistoric passenger, commercial and competition automobile
Darracq's first reported six-cylinder passenger type, using chain final drive while later 1907 sixes adopted shafts and four-speed gearboxes. Accessible sources do not safely establish its rating or capacity, so neither is inferred from the next year's 30/40 and 40/50 models. The Type U identity is preserved as a one-year transitional flagship.
