The Matra Djet was a series of compact sports cars introduced in 1962. The Djet was originally developed by Automobile Rene Bonnet and was the world’s first production road car with a rear mid-engine when it was launched. The car was actually to be given the nickname “Jet”. However, as Bonnet did not trust his fellow countrymen to pronounce the English word “jet” correctly, it became “Djet”. After limited production under the Rene Bonnet brand, the company ran into financial difficulties and Matra, which had already provided the bodies and production space, decided to continue production under the Matra brand. Bonnet only built just under 200 units by 1964. After the sale to Matra, a further 1491 vehicles were added, and Matra continued to build the Djet almost unchanged until 1868.
Production of the Djet continued in different variants: I, II, III, IV, V, V S and Jet 6. These cars were powered by a choice of 1.0-liter, 1.1-liter or 1.2-liter in-line engines, all mated to a 4-speed manual transmission and driving the rear wheels. Production of the Matra Djet ended at the end of 1967, but a few examples were still being sold in 1968.
