Le Zèbre is a French make of car built between 1909 and 1931 in Puteaux, Seine. The company was founded by Jules Salomon who had been with Georges Richard with finance from Jacques Bizet, son of Georges Bizet the composer. The make historian is Philip Schram who wrote the book "l'Epopee de la societe Le Zebre".

In 1909 Solomon developed his first car, the type A. This design proved very economical to manufacture, selling for 3,000 francs, or 1,000 F less than competitors. The wheelbase was 180 cm (71 in). The two friends decided not to give their names to the car, instead opting to call it "Le Zèbre" (The Zebra), which was originally a nickname given to a clerk of their former employer. In 1911 the company was registered as "Société anonyme des automobiles Le Zèbre". Originally the frames were built by the Paquis Works, and some were equipped with engines manufactured nearby in Saint-Denis by Aster in single, twin or four cylinder configurations.

Car making continued through the First World War. In 1915 the Ministry of War placed an order for 40 cars per month as well as the supply of various military parts. Unfortunately the car had many problems, including the engine and gearbox cast as one unit, allowing engine oil to seep into the clutch which would have to be drained often, axles breaking every 322 km (200 miles, and the fact that it could lose wheels while on the road.
