Hotchkiss
HOTCHKISS AM80S/620

Roadster, sports saloon, sports coupé, cabriolet, 7-seater saloon, limousine.

Mechanics similar to the last AM80s but with new, enlarged 100bhp engine and synchro 'boxes on '35s. Engines moved forward in frames from 1934 onward, these later 31/2-litres including the Paris-Nice, with 115bhp and 90-plus mph. Longer, 130ins wheelbase listed for formal coachwork. Neither refined nor (usually) elegant, but handles well and is quite unburstable.
