Devaux Cars
Devaux Coupe is an Australian car manufacturer based in Beaconsfield in the state of Victoria . The company was founded by industrial designer David J. Clash. Clash chose the company name Devaux after his mother's maiden name. The company has no connection with the vehicles of the US American De Vaux from the 1930s.
Clash began working on the first and so far only vehicle model, the Devaux Coupé , in the late 1980s - initially in a backyard workshop. With the increasing success of his design company, work on the vehicle continued. The first prototype was completed in the early 2000s and production started in 2001.

The vehicle is currently only produced as a right-hand drive and is not officially offered in the EU. The seventh vehicle built was nevertheless imported to Germany and delivered in Hamburg.
