FactRenault's big Vivasix was still selling well as far away as Shanghai in 1931, a year after production had already ended.
The Renault Vivasix was a full-size car built between 1926 and 1930, replaced in 1930 by the Vivastella; in 1927 Renault created two models, a luxury and expensive "Type RA" and a simpler "Type PG" (PG1 1926–1929, PG3 in 1930), together known as the Vivasix, one of the larger Renaults of the period. It has a 3180 cc straight-six (52 CV), a top speed of 130 km/h (81 mph) and a three-speed manual; the latest models were selling well in Shanghai in 1931. Length 177.2 in, width 66.9 in, curb weight 3,748 lb; the wheelbase ranges from 122.4 to 128.3 in.

It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
