    Barreiros Simca Peugeot: Evolución De Sus Motorizaciones

    Barreiros Simca Peugeot: Evolución de sus motorizaciones Scott Hebrón 1º edición Introducción Existen algunas preguntas a las que muchos aficionados y conductores querrían encontrar una respuesta firme referente a las mecánicas Barreiros Simca Peugeot. ¿Compartían algo de mecánica o motorización los motores entre ellos? ¿Pervivió Barreiros hasta la extinción de los motores Simca, a principios de los 90? ¿Se continuaron fabricando motores de inspiración Simca o Barreiros tras la desaparición de estas marcas? Mucho se ha escrito y divulgado al respecto, a veces con opiniones contrarias, sin embargo lo que se trata de buscar es una respuesta objetiva, contrastada, suficientemente documentada, a ese tipo de preguntas y similares. ¿Por qué es importante esto? Por varias razones: principalmente, por la pervivencia en la mente automovilística de un imperio español con extraordinaria calidad y calado. Asimismo, por la huella en el tiempo que habría dejado palpable la 1 estupenda calidad, tanto mecánica como de construcción y diseño, de unos motores legendarios ya en la época en la que se construyeron. Barreiros nació en 1945 con BECOSA (Barreiros Empresa Constructora, S.A.) y concluyó su actividad automovilística en 1969 cuando Chrysler la absorve totalmente. La americana Chrysler ya había comprado en 1967, dentro de su política de expansión europea, la francesa Simca y la inglesa Rootes. En 1978 Chrysler Europe vende todas sus filiales a la francesa Peugeot, recreando ésta, poco tiempo después, la marca Talbot para unificarlas. Este entramado de fechas y marcas es esencial conocerlo para entender el dispar movimiento de versiones y tecnología que se movió entre tan variadas marcas por esas fechas.

    CHAPTER 5 suggested citation: Medrano-Bigas, Pau. The Forgotten Years of Bibendum. Michelin’s American Period in Milltown: Design, Illustration and Advertising by Pioneer Tire Companies (1900-1930). Doctoral dissertation. University of Barcelona, 2015 [English translation, 2018]. THE TROJAN HORSE: IMPORTED AUTOMOBILES In the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the furor for bicycles as a personal and economical means of transport led to the invasion of the French market by English and American firms—leading to fierce commercial competition with the country’s own industries—resulting in the collapse of 1898. In the early stages of the new century the full development of the European automobile industry and in particular the French sector—with the inseparable development of the tire—produced a similar effect. However, this time it was the American market that was invaded by imported European vehicles, pre- dominantly from France. 1. Transatlantic travel on wheels Between 1890 and 1891 the first French vehicles marketed by Peugeot—one of the major bicycle manu- facturers—and Panhard et Levassor, appeared on the scene and incorporated the internal combustion engine developed by the German Gottlieb Daimler. French and German investments in technology, which would be imposed on the rest, was based on gasoline-powered engines and collided with the English and North American options, diversified between vapor, electric and gas-powered automobiles. Production data from the United States in 1899 show that there were 2,500 vehicles—about 80% of which used electric or steam engines—manufactured by around 30 companies. Between 1900 and 1901, France was by far the world’s largest automobile producer.
