The Panhard Dyna X: technical and aesthetic revolution
Launched in 1948, the Panhard Dyna X represented a true revolution in French automotive design. Designed by Jean-Albert Grégoire and Louis Bionier, it introduced remarkable technical innovations: a self-supporting aluminum body, an air-cooled twin-cylinder engine, and a torsion bar front suspension. This innovative approach resulted in a particularly light vehicle, weighing only 560 kg.
The Dyna X's lines marked a complete aesthetic break with pre-war automobiles. Its streamlined silhouette, smooth sides, and aerodynamic design made it a cutting-edge car. The 1950 model benefited from the first improvements made to the series, particularly in terms of finish and interior equipment.
Despite its high price, the Dyna X enjoyed critical success with a demanding clientele, particularly appealing to engineers and automotive technology enthusiasts who appreciated its innovations.
Panhard: pioneer of automotive innovation
Founded in 1891 by René Panhard and Émile Levassor, the Panhard brand had already established itself as an automotive pioneer by the end of the 19th century. In 1950, the company was undergoing a period of renewal under the leadership of Paul Panhard, who entrusted Jean-Albert Grégoire with the mission of creating a revolutionary automobile.
This era marked the height of French automotive ingenuity. Panhard, drawing on its technical heritage, dared to come up with bold solutions that would have a lasting impact on the industry. The firm on Avenue d'Ivry cultivated a philosophy of innovation that distinguished it from its more conventional competitors.
The year 1950 represented a turning point for Panhard, which established itself as the most avant-garde French manufacturer, blazing trails that others would follow decades later.
A car that divided the crowds
The Panhard Dyna X aroused passionate reactions when it first appeared in public. Its revolutionary design provoked either admiration or rejection, rarely indifference. Automotive journalists of the time sometimes called it "the car of the future" and sometimes "the UFO of Avenue d'Ivry."
A famous anecdote tells of a visitor at the 1950 Paris Motor Show who mistook the Dyna X for an experimental prototype and asked when it would be released, unaware that it had already been in production for two years. This misunderstanding perfectly illustrated the visionary nature of this automobile.
The writer Boris Vian, passionate about cars and innovation, owned a Dyna X, which he nicknamed "my flying saucer." He praised its exceptional lightness and maneuverability, saying that it literally "flew" along country roads. This automobile attracted a clientele of intellectuals, artists, and engineers who appreciated its nonconformist character .
The Dyna X also made an impression with its surprising performance: despite its small twin-cylinder engine, it could reach 120 km/h thanks to its aerodynamics and lightness, remarkable figures for the time. This combination of technical innovation and aesthetic audacity made it a true icon of French modernity in the 1950s.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
