Euston was a British automobile manufacturer that operated briefly from 1922 to 1924. Founded by Fowler & Bigden in London, the company specialized in producing a very light three-wheeled vehicle known as a monocar.
The Euston monocar was powered by a 23/4 hp single-cylinder two-stroke Villiers engine, which drove the front wheel. Its design resembled that of a motorcycle sidecar, making it an appealing option for individuals with mobility challenges. The vehicle measured only 88 inches (2,236 mm) in length and 36 inches (914 mm) in width, and it was priced at £95, positioning it as an affordable mode of transport during its time.
Despite its innovative design and targeted market, Euston ceased operations after just two years, leaving behind a brief but notable legacy in the realm of early 20th-century British motoring.
