Brogan was an American automobile manufacturer that operated from 1946 to 1951, based in Rossmoyne, Ohio. The company was a division of B&B Specialty Co. and focused on producing a range of extremely small passenger and commercial vehicles in the immediate post-World War II era.
The Brogan lineup included a series of three-wheeled vehicles, which featured various configurations, including models with a single front wheel and others with a single rear wheel. The vehicles were available in both two-seater and four-seater versions, with the latter designated as Broganette. Powering these small vehicles was a rear-mounted Onan 2-cylinder air-cooled engine, which produced 10 horsepower. The design incorporated a clutchless transmission, which was a notable feature for vehicles of that size and era.
In the early stages of production, some models were marketed under the name B&B Three Wheel, reflecting the company's origins and the focus on three-wheeled designs. Despite their unique offerings, Brogan ceased operations in 1951, marking the end of its brief presence in the automotive industry.
