Brand Data

Company Name: Salmson Motor Co. Ltd

Place: Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire

Country: United Kingdom

Ace was a British automobile brand produced by Salmon Motor Co. Ltd, which was established in Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, in 1912. The company was founded by P. Salmon, who previously served as the chief designer for Baguley Cars. The Ace vehicles were manufactured in the Baguley factory, reflecting a close association between the two brands.

The Ace featured a compact monobloc 4-cylinder engine with a displacement of 748cc, paired with a 2-speed gearbox and chain drive. The model was designed as a 2-seater and was priced at £100, which was considered reasonable for the time. Despite its affordability, the Ace did not achieve significant sales success. Production continued until approximately 1916, coinciding with the onset of World War I. In addition to the Ace, Salmon Motor Co. Ltd also produced larger vehicles under the names Salmon and Baguley.
