The Peugeot Type 4 was a one-off car produced by Peugeot in 1892 for Ali III ibn al-Husayn, the Bey of Tunis,[1] in accordance with whose wishes the car was decorated.[2]
The Type 4 was made with a 1.0 L (1026 cc) 15-degree V-twin engine that produced 4 horsepower.[3] The 0.6 L (565 cc) engine in the Peugeot Type 3 was considered to be insufficient, and produced half as much power.[4] The elaborately decorated car survives and is kept at Sochaux, France.[5]
