The '''Astatic''' was a French [[cyclecar]] manufactured from 1920 to 1922 by Automobiles Astatic, [[Saint-Ouen, Seine-Saint-Denis|Saint-Ouen]], Seine, France.

Built at Saint-Ouen, the car was an attempt to market a vehicle with [[independent suspension]] all round.  This was done by coupling each wheel to a horizontal coil spring by a right angle link. At the rear the differential housing was fixed to the chassis and drive was taken to the wheels through jointed drive shafts. The engine was an 894&nbsp;cc or 1100&nbsp;cc S.C.A.P.<ref name="Bolster1964">{{cite book|author=John Bolster|author-link=Autosport#John Bolster|title=French vintage cars|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=MMrVAAAAMAAJ|accessdate=2 January 2013|year=1964|publisher=Autosport}}</ref>
