Dana (Denmark) - AllCarIndex

Dana was a Danish automobile manufacturer that operated from approximately 1908 to 1914. Founded by Hakon Olsen, the company was based in Copenhagen and specialized in the production of belt-driven cyclecars.

The vehicles produced by Dana were powered by 6 horsepower Peugeot air-cooled engines and featured two-speed gearboxes. Their lightweight design, weighing around 570 pounds (260 kg), made them particularly popular in rural areas, as they complied with the 450 kg weight limit that restricted access to certain country roads.

However, the market for Dana's vehicles diminished following the abolition of the weight restriction, which ultimately led to the company's exit from the automotive industry.
