Endurance (United Kingdom) - AllCarIndex

Endurance Motor Co. Ltd was a British automobile manufacturer based in Coventry, active from 1899 to 1901. The company produced vehicles that were heavily influenced by the designs of Karl Benz, reflecting the early automotive industry's reliance on pioneering engineering concepts.

The vehicles manufactured by Endurance were equipped with either 4.5 or 6 horsepower horizontal single-cylinder engines. They featured a 2-speed belt transmission system, which was typical of the era's automotive technology. Despite their innovative design, the company had a brief existence and produced a limited number of cars.

One notable event in the company's history was its participation in the Thousand Miles Trial of 1900, an endurance test for automobiles. However, the vehicle entered by Endurance did not complete the trial and ultimately retired from the competition. The company's short-lived production run and limited success in motorsport marked the end of its operations by 1901.
