The Standard 12/15 was a passenger car that the Standard Motor Company in Coventry built in 1904 as the successor to the 6 hp model .

Like its predecessor, this vehicle was also available as a four-seater touring car. Instead of the horizontal single-cylinder engine, an in-line two-cylinder engine with a displacement of 1926 cc was installed twice as large. According to the type designation, the machine probably produced approx. 15 bhp (11 kW).

In the following year, Standard already offered the first four- and six-cylinder cars for which the company became known.
