Arabian was an American automobile brand active from 1915 to 1917, founded by William Galloway in Waterloo, Iowa. Initially, Galloway's company specialized in high-wheelers, but he later transitioned to producing more conventional automobiles. To achieve this, he acquired vehicles from the Argo company and rebranded them as Arabian.
The Arabian cars were equipped with four-cylinder engines, initially offering 12 horsepower in 1915, which was later increased to 22 horsepower. The majority of Arabian vehicles were designed as two-seater roadsters, although in 1917, a five-seater tourer was introduced on a longer wheelbase, expanding the brand's offerings.
Despite its brief existence, Arabian contributed to the early automotive landscape in the United States during the early 20th century.
