The story

Édouard Vrard, who had previously worked for Léon Bollée and De Dion-Bouton, prepared a prototype to be presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1904. However, it wasn’t until 1907 that Vrard founded his own automotive company, under the name Automobiles Stabilia, located at Neuilly-sur-Seine. Later, in 1911, the company was renamed to Giraldy et Vrard, though the cars were still badged as Stabilia. The manufacturing expanded to also take place in Asnières-sur-Seiner, and once again, in 1920, was renamed to Vrard et Cie. later, during the 1920s with only the production site in Asnières-sur-Seiner, production started declining, until it ended altogether in 1930.
