The Peugeot Type 181, also known at the time and normally advertised simply according to its fiscal horse power as the Peugeot 11HP,〔 was a mid-range car produced between 1925 and 1928 by the French auto-maker Peugeot at their Audincourt plant. The Type 181 was first presented in October 1924 at the 19th Paris Motor Show as a new model for 1925. Nearly 10,000 Type 181s were produced including, in 1928, Peugeot ‘s 100,000th automobile. The car was closely related to the Peugeot Type 177, but came with a larger 1,615 cc side-valve four-cylinder engine,〔 driving the rear wheels and delivering a claimed 40 hp. The standard 181 model featured a 2795 mm wheelbase, while the slightly longer 181 B had a 2865 mm wheelbase. The cars’ overall lengths were respectively 4000 mm and 4070 mm, with a track of 1260 mm. Various bodies were available including a “Torpedo”, an “all weather cabriolet” and a “Coupé limousine” offering space for five people. Type 181 production continued until 1928, by when 9,259 had been produced. == Sources and further reading == * Wolfgang Schmarbeck: ''Alle Peugeot Automobile 1890-1990''. Motorbuch-Verlag.
