British Automotive

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BAC (1921)

The British Automotive Co. Ltd. was a British automobile manufacturer based in London . From 1921 to 1923 two different models were created there under the name BAC .

The BAC 10 hp was a light, open roadster with wire-spoke wheels. The Monoposto had a side-controlled four-cylinder in-line engine with 1,498 cc and was offered from 1921 to 1923.

Only in 1922 was a model with a smaller engine available, the BAC 9.5 hp . The chassis and structure corresponded to the first model, but the side-controlled four-cylinder engine had a displacement of only 1,208 cc.

Neither of the two vehicles was able to establish itself on the market, and so the numbers remained low.
