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.
