What were the divisions being raised in France equipped with?
The divisions being raised in France were equipped for training largely with French equipment. Enough Pz-III and Pz-IV tanks, Sturmgeschütz, and armored self-propelled carriages to equip the forty odd mechanized divisions were just not available – or being produced – in sufficient numbers.

Besides the wheeled armored car company, the other companies in the armored reconnaissance battalion were supposed to be equipped with the light armored halftrack or Volkswagen Kübelwagen, but many companies were still equipped with motorcycles.
