Citroen B14

The B14 “Any Steel” is presented to the Living room of October 1926. It represents a decisive technological advance compared to B12.
Le frame is reduced, the engine is more flexible and the brake with the foot acts now on the four wheels.

In March 1927, B14 becomes B14F with Frein S assisted by servo Westinghouse. Top speed reaches 80 kilometers per hour. The range of body is wide since the catalog of the time proposes:

the sedan (4 doors, 6 ices and trunk) in series, half-luxury and luxury,
the truck (4 doors, 4 ices and trunk) in series and half-luxury,
the family one (4 doors, 6 ices and trunk) luxates of it
the coach (2 doors, 4 places) in series and luxury
the Cabriolet (2 doors, 2,3 or 4 places) in capotable or not convertible (or the false-convertible)
the half-compartment of city
the taxi in sedan, landaulet and sedan landaulet
the Norman (utility open)

With the Salon 1927 appears the model B14G whose silhouette was refined. Family supplements the range.
