The second link makes mention of a "car of the future" with a seven cylinder radial engine. Perhaps that is it?

Towards the end of 1933, 'Noël-Noël' and Voisin parted ways, leaving the design of the bodies now solely in Voisin's hands. In the previous years, he had focused more on the technical and mechanical designs, which included the development of a variety of new engines including a V12 and seven cylinder radial engine. The latter was intended for "The Car of the Future Project", which would have a monocoque type chassis and independent suspension all-round. Unfortunately the dire condition of his company forced Voisin to concentrate on the present.

Avions Voisin is one of those companies that you would really need a super detailed book full of technical specs, photos, stories and personalities to really understand. If anyone knows of such a book I'm all ears!
BTW, for those new to it, you pronounce it "Ah-YOH Vwah-ZAH(n)" with nasal N's dropped much like the R in Louvre.
