Princess (US automobile)
The Princess was an automobile built in Detroit, Michigan by the Princess Motor Car Company from 1914 until 1918.[1]
History
[edit]The original Little Princess was a cyclecar that was altered into a light or small car and renamed the Princess. It was powered by a 1.6-liter Farmer engine.[1]
In 1915, the company bought the Saxon factory and began production of roadster and touring automobiles with a four-cylinder 24hp G B & S engine. Prices were moderate at $775, equivalent to $18,431 in 2023. The company ceased production in 1918.[1]
