Georges Irat
France, 1921 – 1946
(1) Automobiles Georges Irat, SA, Chatou, Seine-et-Oise, 1921 – 1929
(2) Automobiles Georges Irat, SA, Neuilly, Seine, 1929 – 1934
(3) Automobiles Georges Irat, SA, Levallois-Perret, Seine, 1935 – 1946
The vintage Georges Irat was a well-built fast touring car rather than an out and out sports car, although the Georges Irat was entered in many races including Le Mans, and did particularly well in the Circuit des Routes Pavées, which it won in 1923, 1925, and 1927. The first Georges Irat model used a 4-cylinder 2-litre ohv engine of Georges Irat’s own design and 4-wheel Dewandre vacuum servo brakes. This was succeeded in 1927 by a 3-litre six with the same cylinder dimensions (69x130mm). About 200 of these Georges Irat cars were sold per year right through the vintage period, but in 1929 the Georges Irat company moved to Neuilly where they tried to produce large luxury cars with 6- and 8-cylinder Lycoming engines and independent front suspension. Saoutchik built some very handsome bodies for these Georges Irat cars, but they were never produced in series.
In 1935 the Georges Irat firm moved again, to Levallois, and began to make a small sports car with an 1.100cc Ruby engine, and front-wheel drive. Although they were more sporting in appearance than performance, these Georges Irat cars became quite popular in France, and were made up to 1939 when another wd car appeared, this time with the 11CV Citroën engine and rubber suspension. About 1.000 of the Ruby-engined cars were made. A number of minute electric Georges Irat cars were made during World War 2, and in 1946 Georges Irat showed a prototype with an 1.100cc flat twin engine, magnesium alloy body and strip headlamps on the front bumpers. This was never manufactured, and after experimenting with Diesel lorries, Georges Irat left the field of vehicle building to concentrate on engines.
