Automoviles Eusebio Cortes SA was a Spanish automobile manufacturer based in Barcelona, active from 1945 to 1953. Founded by Eusebio Cortes, the company aimed to establish a significant national presence in the automotive industry by producing 4-door sedans.

The initial models featured 2-cylinder, 2-stroke engines with a displacement of 764 cc, generating 23.5 bhp. These vehicles were notable for their front-wheel drive and were available in various configurations, including sedan, station wagon, and light van. The station wagon variant was particularly distinctive due to its wooden body construction. In late 1948, the company expanded its offerings by introducing a new 3-cylinder, 2-stroke engine that produced 32 bhp, which was made available alongside the original 2-cylinder engine. A prototype of a 2-door coupé was also developed but did not enter production.

In 1949, the company launched the Victoria, a redesigned model that featured integrated front lights. Additionally, there were some racing variants and a convertible designed by Capilla, as well as a special one-box taxi prototype. The final model produced by the company, named Victoria Avion, showcased a design reminiscent of Studebaker vehicles, characterized by a shell-like radiator.

Despite producing over 1,500 vehicles, Automoviles Eusebio Cortes SA faced financial difficulties and challenges in importing necessary machine tools, leading to its closure in 1953.
