Brand Data

Company Name: Dragon Motors Corp.

Place: Chicago, Illinois

Country: United States

Dragon Motors Corporation was established in Chicago, Illinois, during the early 1920s, specifically between 1920 and 1921. The company aimed to manufacture a range of sporting cars and taxicabs. However, the production of taxicabs never materialized, and the company ultimately produced only a limited number of vehicles.

The Dragon cars were notable for their design, which bore a resemblance to the contemporary Revere models. Each vehicle was equipped with a 4-cylinder engine that generated 58 brake horsepower at 2,400 revolutions per minute. The cars featured a wheelbase of 120 inches (3,045 mm) and were fitted with wire wheels. Among the offerings, a four-seater touring car was priced at $3,200.

Despite the production of approximately 13 cars, Dragon Motors Corporation faced legal challenges that led to the dissolution of the company. The brief existence of Dragon Motors serves as an example of the speculative ventures in the automotive industry during that era.
