Ama was a Belgian automobile manufacturer active during the early 20th century, specifically from 1913 to 1914. The brand's name stood for American Motorcar Agency, reflecting its use of American-made engines and chassis. These components were imported from an unspecified source, while the bodies of the vehicles were crafted in Belgium by a company named Miner. The design featured a distinctive vee-radiator inspired by the Metallurgique style.
The vehicles produced by Ama were equipped with a 4-cylinder engine with a displacement of 4500cc, which was rated at 18/24 horsepower. Although the exact production numbers remain unknown, it is noted that one of their open tourer models achieved a commendable second place in a race at the Ostend Meeting in 1913, highlighting the brand's brief involvement in competitive motorsport.
