Climax engine
The Climax Motor Company was a British automobile manufacturer based in Coventry (Warwickshire) . From 1905 to 1907 mid-range automobiles were produced there. This company is not to be confused with the engine manufacturer Coventry Climax , which - also based in Coventry - was still operating under the name “Coventry Simplex” at the time.
Six models from 14 hp to 22 hp were created in just three years. However, none of these models were produced in large numbers.
