History:
Robert Bellanger and his brothers founded the business in 1912 for the production of motor cars.  The cars were branded “Bellanger” although badges carrying the longer name “Bellanger Frères” (Bellanger Brothers) was also sometimes featured on the car. The Bellanger slogan was "Son capot est d'argent et son silence est d'or" - "her bonnet is silver and her silence is golden".
Robert Bellanger embarked in a career as a politician in the 1920s and the "Bellanger Frères" business was sold in 1925, one of several smaller French automakers acquired by Peugeot around this time. However, in 1928 the site was sold again, and became the property of the newly formed Automobiles L. Rosengart business and used for the production under license of the little Austin 7.
The first cars, introduced a couple of years before the First World War, were powered by sleeve valve Daimler engines of 2000 cm³, 2600 cm³, 3000 cm³ and 6300 cm³. The first three of these were frequently used for taxi work in Paris.
During the war the manufacturer concentrated on supplying the military.
After the war car production resumed in 1919, starting with the A1, powered by a 3.2 litre 4 cylinder side valve engine. The A1 was designed by Valentin Laviolette, who had previously designed cars for Spyker. Bellanger had by now switched to Briscoe Frères as its engine supplier.
