The Fascinating History of CG

The CG (Chasson-Galy) brand was born in the 1960s from the ambitious vision of two French engineers who wanted to create a unique automobile. Based in the Lyon region, this artisanal manufacturer distinguished itself with its innovative approach to French automotive design.

CG then developed cars with bold lines , mixing Italian influences and French know-how. The brand offered vehicles intended for a clientele seeking exclusivity, far from mass production. Each CG leaving the workshops testified to meticulous work, reflecting the passion of its creators for automotive excellence.

This artisanal philosophy explains why CG Model cars are so attractive to collectors today: they perpetuate the spirit of an era when the automobile was above all a rolling work of art, an expression of French creative genius.

A Significant Anecdote

The history of CG contains a particularly interesting anecdote that illustrates the innovative spirit of the era. In 1967, at the Paris Motor Show, CG presented a revolutionary prototype equipped with a particularly ingenious air-cooling system . This mechanism, inspired by aeronautical techniques, made it possible to optimize performance while reducing the vehicle's weight.

This technical innovation, although never commercialized on a large scale, testifies to the creative audacity that characterized the French automobile industry of this era. It recalls how small manufacturers like CG contributed to enriching the national automotive heritage through their bold experiments.

This anecdote resonates particularly today, at a time when technological innovation is once again becoming a major issue in the automotive industry. CG Model cars thus carry within them the memory of these pioneers who dared to imagine the automobile of tomorrow.
