Brand Data

Company Name: Athmac Motor Co.

Place: Leyton, Essex

Country: United Kingdom

Athmac Motor Co. was a British automobile manufacturer based in Leyton, Essex, which operated briefly in 1913. The company produced the Athmac, a cyclecar characterized by its unique friction transmission system. Unlike typical designs of the time, the Athmac utilized a cone-shaped driving disc instead of a flat one, and it featured a final drive mechanism that employed long belts.

The vehicle was powered by a relatively advanced 1109cc four-cylinder engine with a single overhead camshaft. Despite its innovative engineering, the Athmac was offered in a two-seater configuration at a price of 120 guineas (£126). However, the company did not manage to survive beyond the year of its introduction, marking a short-lived chapter in the history of British automotive manufacturing.
