Dupressoir

1900-1914

Brand Data

Paul Dupressoir was a French vehicle manufacturer based in Maubeuge, in the Nord department. The company began as a bicycle maker in 1892 and later became better known as a supplier of chassis under the brand name Rolling, rather than as a producer of complete automobiles, though it did build cars on occasion.

Around 1900, Dupressoir produced light voiturettes fitted with De Dion-Bouton or Aster engines mounted beneath the seat. These engines could be air- or water-cooled and were rated at 2.5 or 3 horsepower.

In 1912, the company introduced a range of complete cars under the Rolling name, matching its chassis branding. These models used four-cylinder monobloc Chapuis-Dornier engines available in 7, 9, 10 and 12 horsepower variants. The 9 horsepower version served as the basis for the English-built Averies light car, produced between 1913 and 1914.
