The 14/30 hp car with propeller-shaft drive was based on the 15/20 hp model introduced in 1909, which had complemented the sales range with a low-priced, entry-level model and a second car with propeller-shaft drive. Thanks to the increase in displacement to 3.6 litres, engine output had risen to 30 hp by 1913 and was later boosted to 35 hp.
