02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionC23 cars built (the marque site says "some 335"; the lead cites about 250 from another source) | 3351 | 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
Voisin introduced the 17 CV C23 in 1931 to fill the gap between the 13 CV models and the luxurious 28 and 33 CV cars. It was well received as a saloon; the car sits high but is not an underslung chassis.
