Equipped with a Gardner 6-cylinder diesel engine of 102 hp and rear-wheel drive, it was developed in 1937 with a total of 459 units manufactured.

Many of these vehicles were lost during the evacuation of the British Expeditionary Corps on the beaches of Dunkirk in 1940, destroyed by retreating troops or captured by the Germans who put them back into use.
