Seven years after the launch of Type A, the B14 was revealed in 1926. Thanks to the excellent reliability and modern technology of the car, André Citroën began the modern era of car construction with the "10CV B14” with global production quickly reaching 400 cars a day, 2/3 of which were "All-steel" bodies. The chassis of the B14 was lower and lighter compared to the old 10HP B12. However, it suffered from a lack of rigidity and was reinforced in the spring of 1927. At the same time, it received a servo-brake, an accessory previously reserved for highest quality cars, and the engine cylinders underwent a hardening treatment to limit wear.
