Chronology
PredecessorPeugeot Type 56

The Peugeot Type 58 is an early motor car produced by the French auto-maker Peugeot at their Audincourt plant in 1904. Despite being in production for only a year, 121 were produced.

The Type 58 replaced the company's successful Type 56 model, and carried over most of the mechanical components from its predecessor, but the Type 58 was 15 cm (6 inches) longer than the Type 56.

The Type 58 was propelled using a single cylinder 833 cc four stroke engine, mounted ahead of the driver. A maximum of between 6 and 7 hp (5 kW) of power was delivered to the rear wheels by means of a rotating drive-shaft.

The car sat on a 1,900 mm (74.8 in) wheelbase. The open carriage Tonneau format body offered space for four.

1 These cars were marketed as "Lion-Peugeots", produced by what was till 1910 a separate Peugeot company, run by cousins of Armand Peugeot, then in charge of the principal automobile business.

In 1910, Armand having no sons of his own, it was agreed that the two branches of the Peugeot business be reunited.
