The Standard Eleven or hp Standard 11 was a car by the Standard Motor Company in Coventry in 1923 built.

The two models with overhead steering four-cylinder engines (ohv), the larger 11.6 and the smaller 8 hp , were joined by the 11 hp as a third model in 1923. The unit of the medium-sized touring car had a displacement of 1307 cm³ (bore × stroke = 68 mm × 90 mm). The new engine was the result of the combination of the crankshaft of the 8 hp and the engine block of the 11.6.

After just one year, production of the 11 hp was stopped. Six years later, the era of ohv motors at Standard ended again. It was not until 1948 that the side-controlled motors were finally given up.
