1958 Dyna Panhard advert


The Dyna Z was produced from 1954 to 1959, replaced by the L 17.

This was a fairly small car, only an 851 cubic centimetre engine and an empty weight of 710 to 875 kg depending on the variant. The text says "6 persons, 6 litres of fuel and 130 km/h." The width was 1,668 mm which would allow about 500 mm (20 inches) per person sitting 3 abreast, so rather a tight squeeze.  The 6 litres of fuel is a bit puzzling - does it mean that with six persons on board and driving at 130 km/h you'll use only 6 litres over 100 km?
