The car's introduction coincided with the final chapter of Amilcar's struggle for survival. After 1935 the Pégase was the manufacturer's only listed model, and by the time it was delisted, the residuum of Amilcar had been absorbed into Hotchkiss.

The Amilcar Pégase was an elegant car, offering a range of bodies that featured the stylish aerodynamic look that became fashionable in the middle 1930s.
