Newcomer to the automotive industry: The Noël Bénet brand, based in Offranville, France, began automobile production in 1900, but manufacturing ceased the same year; only a few units were ever built.

Mechanical feature: The vehicle used a single-cylinder De Dion-Bouton engine, a well-known engine of the time, and was one of the rare French cars to feature a front-engine, front-wheel drive layout.

Body style: Among the available configurations was the vis-à-vis body style, in which passengers sat facing each other.
