History of the model

Launched in 1954, the Panhard Dyna Z revolutionized the French automobile industry with its bold technical approach. Equipped with an air-cooled flat-twin engine, it developed a unique philosophy emphasizing energy efficiency and innovation. The Z12 version, released in 1957, benefited from significant improvements with an engine enlarged to 851 cc developing 42 horsepower.

The Grand Standing trim level represents the pinnacle of the Dyna Z range, offering luxurious equipment that was rare for the time: leather seats, an enhanced dashboard, and meticulous finishing touches. This top-of-the-range version demonstrates Panhard's ambition to compete with traditional bourgeois sedans with a revolutionary technical approach, prioritizing lightness and aerodynamics.

Anecdote

The Dyna Z was dubbed "the car of the future" when it was unveiled at the 1953 Paris Motor Show. Its drag coefficient (Cx 0.26) remained unmatched for decades, even surpassing some modern cars! This technical feat allowed the Z12 to reach 140 km/h despite its low power, consuming only 6 liters per 100 kilometers.

Engineer Louis Bionier, father of the Dyna Z, drew inspiration from aeronautics to design this revolutionary body. Wind tunnel testing, rare at the time in the automotive industry, made it possible to optimize each curve. Paradoxically, this avant-garde car frightened the French public, accustomed to classic lines, contributing to limiting its commercial success despite its exceptional qualities.

For your collection

This Panhard Dyna Z12 Grand Standing is a masterpiece for any collector passionate about French automotive innovation. It fits perfectly into a collection dedicated to the 1950s or avant-garde manufacturers, harmoniously interacting with other bold creations of the time. Nostalgia quality guarantees an authentic reproduction of this atypical sedan, preserving the technical and aesthetic heritage of a visionary manufacturer who marked French automotive history with his unique approach to modern mobility.

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).

Does the model car come with protection?

Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.

How is my package protected during transport?

We package each order with the utmost care: bubble wrap, appropriate cushioning, and polystyrene. Your model car is perfectly secure during its journey.

What is the delivery time?

In-stock items are shipped within 24-48 hours. Please allow 2-3 business days for France via Colissimo or 4-5 days via Mondial Relay.

The model car is no longer in stock, when will you have it?

It's impossible for me to know exactly when I'll receive a new stock because I receive arrivals in dribs and drabs. Please contact me so I can keep you informed as soon as it's available.
