Panhard K 101

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Panhard K 101 was a French forward-control truck built by Panhard from 1937 to 1940 for both military and commercial buyers. It carried a payload of 3.5 tonnes and was Panhard's answer to the new forward-control AGx range from Renault. In all the company built 816 of them, and 491 went to the French army from 1939 onwards. A four-cylinder petrol engine of 3.17 litres gave about 70 PS and a top speed near 59 kilometres an hour, and the body was roughly 6.4 metres long and 2.35 metres wide. Panhard also made a variant called the K 128 with a gas producer in place of petrol, a short run of 31 trucks that was part of an army plan to run a tenth of its vehicles on gasifiers.
