The Peugeot Type 66 was the first large car from French automaker Peugeot, as well as the first vehicle from that manufacturer to have four cylinders. Most were made as closed-top limousines. The engine displaced 5.0 L (4974 cc) and produced 25 horsepower (19 kW), which was sufficient to carry the car to a top speed of 87 kilometres per hour (54 mph). Production ran throughout 1904 and a total of 20 were built.
1 These cars were marketed as "Lion-Peugeots", produced by what was till 1910 a separate Peugeot company, run by cousins of Armand Peugeot, then in charge of the principal automobile business.
In 1910, Armand having no sons of his own, it was agreed that the two branches of the Peugeot business be reunited.
