Davy Engineering Ltd. was a British automobile manufacturer based in Hulme, Manchester, that operated from 1909 to 1911. The company was known for producing vehicles that featured a 15/20 horsepower four-cylinder engine, which was a Hewitt piston valve engine. This engine was manufactured under license from Hewitt Engines Ltd. and was designed by J.M. Hewitt.

The Davy brand made its debut at the 1909 Olympia Show, where one of its vehicles was displayed on the Crowdy stand. The show car was notable for its distinctive 'Canadian canoe' body style, which bore similarities to the Labourdette skiff. Despite its innovative designs, Davy Engineering Ltd. had a brief existence in the automotive industry, ceasing operations just a few years after its inception.
