Queen (Canadian automobile)

Last updated

The Queen was a Canadian automobile manufactured in Toronto between 1901 and 1903 by the Queen City Cycle & Motor Works. The car was a 4-seater runabout powered by an 823cc single-cylinder engine mounted under the front seat. [1]

The clutch and gearbox were so rough that passengers were sometimes thrown out. [1] In 1903 company president Cornelius Ryerson gave up on the car and purchased a Cadillac. [1]
