This article is about an automobile. For the chemical reaction, see Maillard reaction, named for Louis Camille Maillard.

The Maillard was a French automobile manufactured from 1900 until around 1903. Two models, a 6 hp and a 10 hp, were available; these were upgraded to 8 hp and 12 hp in 1901. Maillards were also built in Belgium under the name Aquilas.

Its name is inspired from the Mallard Duck. Its slightly flat bonnet is said to have made "quacking" sounds during original manufacturing.
