He started manufacturing belt-driven cars with single- or twin-cylinder engines mounted at the rear. Business was going good, and in 1911, they released the first car with a V6 engine, the <a href=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/6\/5256\/5472012548_52710699cf_b.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Type 44<\/a>. Right after World War I, like every French manufacturer, Delahaye was going through difficulties, but slowly the brand started to get back up. Consequently, by 1932 they even managed to reactivate their racing department. The good results their cars were achieving in racing events started to bring in sales revenues, to the point that Delahaye cars were becoming common on big races like the Mille Miglia and 24 Hours of Le Mans. There were even monopostos in Grand Prix races.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/a-h\/delahaye_135_15_04.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The first <em>Rallye des Alpes Fran\u00e7aises<\/em> ocurred in 1932.

Delahaye made a total of 14 of the CS. It had a chassis that was 25 cm shorter than the 135 touring car. The shorter chassis promoted a better weight distribution and therefore, improved handling and performance. The engine was enlarged to 3600 cm\u00b3 and delivered 120 hp, that transmitted power to the ground through a four-speed Wilson epicyclic gearbox.
