Why it matters
The Type 109 was a small, economical 7 CV Delahaye designed entirely by Chenard et Walker, who also built it. It was the product of the agreement between the two makes and was sold by both, Chenard calling it the Y9.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionType 109 cars produced ("environ", about) | 3,1001 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
The car was sold with many touring bodies, including a pressed-steel torpedo and several saloons, and with options such as trunks, Triplex glass and wide tyres. Thietart built some luxury false-cabriolet bodies on the chassis. The Club Delahaye page gives about 3,100 cars produced.
