G.P.M. Automobile SA was a French manufacturer based in Roanne, founded by two engineers who had previously worked for Auverland.
The company's main product was the Éole, a small, buggy-like open car featuring fibreglass bodywork mounted on a simple square-tube chassis. It was offered in both two-seater and four-seater configurations, giving it some versatility for different buyers.
The Éole relied on mechanical components sourced from the Citroën AX, including a 1360cc diesel engine producing 50bhp. This powertrain gave the lightweight vehicle a top speed of around 90mph (145km/h).
The model achieved notable commercial success shortly after its introduction, with around 100 examples sold in 1995 alone.
