The Vauxhall B-type, sold as the 27, 30 and 35 h.p., was a large six-cylinder car built by Vauxhall from 1910 to 1914, and the 27 h.p. was Vauxhall's first six-cylinder car. Vauxhall followed Napier and Rolls-Royce into six cylinders; the production engine of 4525 cc, later 5013 cc, used two three-cylinder units where the prototype of 3473 cc had a single block. The chassis was similar to the A-type with semi-elliptic springs and rigid axles on a 135 or 144 inch wheelbase, a four-speed transmission and no front brakes. About 75 were made, with a two-seat tourer, landaulette, cabriolet and limousine bodies believed fitted, and some served with the American Expeditionary Forces in England in the First World War.
