Simca 9

[2] The mechanics were the same as for the Simca Aronde, although the engine was upgraded from 45 to 50 CV (33 to 37 kW).

[1] Its running gear was similar to that of the Simca 8 Sport, with the same iteration of the engine, benefitting from a higher compression ratio.

In September 1952, the 1953 Simca 9 Sport featured all-new bodywork, curvier and with more glazing.

Again, it featured steel bodywork of Facel's manufacture, and, again, it was heavier and thus no faster than the Aronde sedan on which the expensive Sport was based.

[4] For 1955 the car was renamed the Simca Coupé de Ville (with the same bodywork), with full equipment and downplaying the "sport" aspect.This article about a classic post-war automobile produced between 1945 and 1975 is a stub.
