Car Production Numbers. They Made How Many? 1901

This is it. The beginning of it all.     What were they making in 1901?

The top producer was the Locomobile car company with a total out put for the year 1,500 cars.

Winton was second with 700 cars.

Oldsmobile (ahh one we’ve heard of!!) was third with 425.

White came in fourth with 193.

Autocar was next with 140.

Knox was sixth with 100.

Rounding out the bottom was Packard and Stanley with 81 and 80 respectively.

 

This is a 1901 Winton Racer..what's the guy in the front doing?

 

 

1901 Autocar

 

The 1901 Autocar has a shaft-drive engine, powered with a water-cooled, two-cylinder, horizontal-opposed engine in the front of the car. The gasoline tank and battery box were under the front seat.
