The Peugeot Type 9 was a particular model of early automobile manufactured by the French company Automobiles Peugeot between 1894 and 1897,[1] during which time 87 examples were built.[2] It was equipped with a 1.2 liter v-twin engine made in conjunction with Daimler,[3] one of 257 such vehicles produced.[4] The Type 9 was advertised as the brand's first closed-top family car.[5] Like most European vehicles from this time period, it had very small dimensions and mirrored the design style of horse carriages.[6]
For 1897, production of the Type 9 along with that of all other Peugeot models was transferred to the company's first dedicated automobile factory in Audincourt.[7]
