Audibert & Lavirotte

The company, the oldest maker of automobiles in the city, was set up by Maurice Audibert and Emile Lavirotte built cars that were generally similar to the Benz.

In 1900, the company built three 36 hp racers, which were entered in the Nice-Salon-Nice race on 25 March 1901.

[1] They manufactured a so-called Berline de Voyage, which may have been the first saloon car as early as 1898.

The company ceased production in November 1901, after financiers did not pay and the factory was forced to shut down.
