Canda

1900-1902

Brand Data

Canda Manufacturing Company was an American automobile manufacturer based in Carteret, New Jersey, active from 1900 to 1902. The company initially produced a two-seater quadricycle inspired by the De Dion-Bouton design, which marked its entry into the automotive market.

In addition to the quadricycle, Canda expanded its product line to include a tricycle and, in 1901, introduced a side-by-side two-seater Stanhope and a Spider Runabout. The tricycles and quadricycles were equipped with 1.75 horsepower single-cylinder engines, while the larger models featured two 2.5 horsepower single-cylinder engines. These vehicles were capable of reaching speeds of up to 15 miles per hour (24 km/h).

Canda Manufacturing Company contributed to the early automotive industry during its brief existence, but it ultimately ceased operations after just a few years.
