Previous to World War I, Berliet offered a variety of models from 8 CONTINUE to 60 CV. The main models had four-cylinder engines (2412 cc and 4398 cc, respectively), and there was a six-cylinder model of 9500 cc. A 1539 cc design (12 CV) seemed to be produced between 1910 along with 1912. From 1912, six-cylinder models were made upon individual orders solely.The First World War generated a massive increase popular. Berliet, like Renault and Latil, produced trucks for the actual French army. The military orders placed major demands about the factory's capacity, necessitating major investment with production plant and manufacturing facility space.In 1915 a four hundred hectare site was acquired between Vénissieux et Saint-Priest so as to build a new key factory.The Berliet CBA grew to become the iconic truck within the Voie Sacrée, supplying the battle entrance at Verdun during 1916. 25, 000 of these 4/5 load Berliet trucks, originally launched in 1914, were ordered by the actual French army. During 1916 40 ones were leaving the plant every day. Under license from Renault, Berliet were also providing shells and battle tanks at the moment. The number of employees employed increased to 3, 150.By 1917 the worth of annual turnover had multiplied fourfold since the beginning of the war, and a new appropriate structure was deemed suitable. The company became the particular Société anonyme des Motor vehicles Marius Berliet.Following the war the manufacturer reoriented portion of its production back to help passenger cars, but Berliet nevertheless located themselves with excess capacity, as the army was not buying all the vehicles the factory could develop, and overall output halved.Marius Berliet responded for the outbreak of peace by deciding to produce just a single style of truck and a single sort of car, which represented a starting from his pre-war industry strategy. The single truck on what Berliet focused was this 5 ton CBA that had served the country so well during the war.

The passenger car to be produced, exhibited on the Berliet stand at the 15th Paris Motor Demonstrate in October 1919, was the 3296cc (15HP/CV) "Torpedo" bodied "Berliet Kind VB" of modern look. Marius Berliet was probably none to miss a trick: rather than devote period and engineering talent to developing a new car for the revolutionary decade, he obtained and copied an American Dodge. The Dodge was once robust, and the Berliet backup was well received inside March 1919 when that had its first open outing, locally, at the Lyon Deal Fair. The headlights were mounted unusually high as well as the simple disc wheels have been large, giving the car a pleasing "no nonsense" look. Particularly attractive was the cost of just 11, 800 francs in October 1919. Unfortunately, however, the Berliet engineers failed to make certain the steel used from the car's construction was on the same quality as the North american steel used for the actual Dodge, and this resulted in series problems for that early customers of the "Berliet Type VB" and serious reputational destruction of the company.

The factory ended up set up to create the "Berliet Type VB" at the rate of 100 cars daily which would have already been an ambitious target below any circumstances. The rapid drop-off widely used for what during this period was the manufacturer's simply passenger car model that followed the quality issues plunged the enterprise into financial difficulties, with losses of fityfive million francs recorded in a year. Survival was in hesitation, and Berliet was slipped into judicial administration in 1921. Marius Berliet himself had held 88% on the share capital, but was unable to repay all the company's creditors and also the firm therefore fell in to the hands of the banking institutions. Berliet was nevertheless in a position to retain operational control. During the ensuring decade, supported by a sustained recovery successful that in turn reflected a highly effective model strategy after 1922, Berliet was able to pay off his debtors and, in 1929, to regain financial control within the business from the financial institutions.
