The Anjou came with a large limousine-style body significantly modified when compared to its predecessors and characteristic of the times.

A small number of two-door coupés were produced as well as a 2-door cabriolet, branded as the Hotchkiss Anthéor.

Most cars were 1350s, shipped with a four-cylinder OHC 2,312 cc water-cooled unit with one or, at the customer's option, two carburettors.

However, a longer-nosed version allowed space for the larger ohc six-cylinder 3,485 cc water-cooled engine that promoted the car into the stratospheric 20CV taxation class, but increased claimed maximum power from 72/75 hp to 100/125 hp, with a corresponding increase in claimed maximum speed from 130 km/h (81 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph).

Both cars were offered with so-called "classic" four-speed manual transmission, and the smaller-engined car was available with an optional electromagnetic Cotal gearbox,[1] which is seen by some as a precursor to more modern automatic transmission systems, and which would also have stood out from the crowd at any time on account of its having featured four forward speeds and four reverse speeds.
