Fostoria Motor Car Company was an American automobile manufacturer based in Fostoria, Ohio, that operated briefly from 1906 to 1907. The company produced a single model, the 16-horsepower two-cylinder Fostoria, which was a revival of the earlier Detroit-Oxford design.
The Fostoria Motor Car Company had a short-lived existence, lasting only one year. After its closure, the company's designer, William Radford, transitioned to the newly established Hudson Motor Car Company. Radford's expertise contributed to the design of several other vehicles, including the Warren-Detroit, Pilgrim, and Balboa models. Despite its brief operation, Fostoria's legacy is tied to the early development of the American automotive industry.
