The new car, designed by Clarence King, had a four-cylinder 2297cc side valve, engine mounted in-unit with a three-speed transmission. The separate chassis had semi-elliptic leaf springs at the front and cantilever springs at the rear. Brakes acted on the rear wheels only with a separate pair of shoes for the handbrake. Disc type wheels were fitted. The car was said to be capable of reaching nearly 60mph and return 28 miles per gallon. Body styles
