The Ann Arbor was an automobile brand produced by the Huron River Manufacturing Company in Ann Arbor, Michigan, during the years 1911 and 1912. This brand was notable for its dual-purpose vehicles, which were designed to serve both as passenger cars and utility vehicles for small merchants or farmers.
The Ann Arbor models featured a 2-cylinder engine, with the 1911 versions showcasing a conventional bonnet design, while the 1912 models adopted a notably shorter bonnet. In passenger configuration, the vehicles were equipped with three rows of seats, allowing them to accommodate up to eight passengers. The top speed of the Ann Arbor cars was approximately 25 miles per hour (40 kilometers per hour), reflecting the performance standards of early 20th-century automobiles.
Despite their brief production run, the Ann Arbor vehicles exemplified the versatility and practicality sought by early automobile consumers.
