Brand Data

Company Name: Fox Automobil AG Paul Rollmann

Place: Cologne

Country: Germany

FoxAutomobil-AG was a German automobile manufacturer founded in the early 1920s by George Morrison and Paul Rollmann, with its operations based in Cologne. Morrison, a British national who served in the Occupation Forces in Germany after World War I, chose to remain in the country following his demobilization in April 1919. Together with Rollmann, he established the Fox company to produce a light sports car.

The Fox, also known as the Fox-Kleinauto, featured a 4.98 PS four-cylinder engine, which was likely a proprietary design. The vehicles were characterized by their unique bodywork, which was manufactured in Coblenz. The company offered three distinct models: two-seater open and coupe variants, as well as a pointed-tail sports model.

Production of the Fox automobiles continued until at least 1923, but the company faced significant challenges due to the hyperinflation that affected Germany during that period. By February 1927, Morrison returned to England, marking the end of the Fox brand, which did not survive beyond that year. The exact date of the cessation of production remains uncertain, but it is clear that the company struggled to maintain operations in the volatile economic climate of post-war Germany.
