1913 Peugeot Bébé, National Automobile Museum

My eye was drawn to this unusual pint-sized car that looked like a toy compared to other vehicles in the collection.

It’s a 1913 Peugeot Bébé, a 2-seater intended to be a fully functional car — a small affordable “people’s car”.  The Bébé (i.e. baby) was introduced in 1902 as an open body design powered by a single cylinder engine.  In 1910 it was redesigned to include a 4 cylinder 10 hp. engine.  The model was discontinued in 1916.
