Defunct

The Mototri Contal was a French automobile manufactured from 1907 until 1908. More elaborate than most three-wheelers of its era, it featured Roi-des-Belges bodywork on its more expensive models; the company also manufactured delivery tricycles. Perhaps the high point of the firm's existence was the entry, in 1907, of one of its tricars in the Peking-Paris Race; the car, driven by Auguste Pons, failed to go very far.
