Acme Motor Carriage & Machinery Co. Ltd was a Canadian automobile manufacturer based in Hamilton, Ontario. The company was established in the early 20th century, specifically between 1910 and 1911, with the intention of producing both cars and commercial vehicles.
Acme's strategy involved importing engines and running gear from the United States while constructing the vehicle bodies locally. Despite its ambitious plans, the company was only able to produce a single model, a 30 horsepower tourer, before ceasing operations. The brief existence of Acme Motor Carriage highlights the challenges faced by early automotive manufacturers in Canada.
