Corona (United Kingdom) - AllCarIndex

Corona was a British automobile brand that operated from 1920 to 1923, under the ownership of Meteor Manufacturing Co. Ltd., based in Tollington Park, London. The company produced a light car known as the Corona, which did not feature any particularly distinctive characteristics.

Throughout its brief production run, the Corona underwent several changes in engine specifications. Initially, the car was equipped with a 1459cc four-cylinder engine, which was later enlarged to 1526cc in 1921. In 1922, the model adopted a 998cc two-cylinder engine, with some of these engines possibly sourced from Bovier. By 1923, the Corona was powered by a 1246cc four-cylinder engine manufactured by Coventry-Climax.

The pricing of the Corona varied during its production years. The two-cylinder model was priced at £250, while the four-cylinder variants were more expensive, ranging from £475 in 1920 and 1921 to between £300 and £425 in 1923. Despite its short lifespan, the Corona contributed to the early automotive landscape in the United Kingdom.
