Averly was a French automobile manufacturer active during the early 1900s, specifically from 1900 to 1901. Founded by Georges Averly in Lyon, the company emerged from Averly's pioneering work in electric traction. He was notable for constructing an electric tramway that connected the railway station to the exhibition site during the 1894 Lyon Exposition.
During its brief existence, Averly produced a limited number of electric cars. However, the specifics regarding these vehicles remain largely unknown, even to prominent historians of Lyon's automotive history, such as Lucien Loreille. The company's short operational period and the scarcity of detailed records have contributed to its obscurity in the annals of automotive history.
