context_section_description: The Type 40, introduced in 1926 and produced through 1930, used the 3-valve 1.5 L (1496 cc/91 in³) engine first used in some Type 37s.  It was an enclosed tourer or (as the Type 40A) small roadster.  About 830 were built.
  The Type 40A shared its block with the Type 40 and displaced 1.6 L (1627 cc/99 in³).  All 40 Type 40As were built in 1930.
