Simca
1961–1978 · Inline-4
The Simca 1000 was born in Italy: Simca's boss Henri Pigozzi, a native of Turin, picked its design from Fiat's 'Project 122'. It was Simca's first rear-engined car, with a new 944 cc 'Poissy' engine, and at launch it came in just three colours.

1975–1986 · Inline-4
British styling, French engineering: Roy Axe's team drew it at Whitley, while Simca developed it at Poissy. One of the first front-wheel-drive hatchbacks in its class, it became the 1976 European Car of the Year, and in Britain it was sold as the Chrysler Alpine.

Simca
1937–1951 · Inline-4
Non-stop for 50,000 km (31,075 miles) in a single car: that was how Simca's boss Henri Pigozzi made the Simca 8's name in 1938. Watched by the Automobile Club de France, the endurance run broke eight international records in the first 10,000 km. The car itself was a Fiat 508C "nuova Balilla" built at Nanterre, near Paris.
