Aldo was an American automobile brand established in 1910 by the Albaugh Dover Company, based in Chicago, Illinois. The company was known for producing high-wheel motor buggies, which were a popular style of vehicle during the early 20th century.
The Aldo vehicles were powered by a 12-horsepower air-cooled flat-twin engine, which was a common engine type for that era. The transmission system utilized planetary gears, and the final drive was achieved through a chain mechanism. One of the notable figures associated with Aldo was Gilbert R. Albaugh, who had previously designed vehicles for other manufacturers, including the Cleveland-built STAR and the Detroit-built WOLVERINE.
Despite its innovative designs, Aldo's production was limited, and the brand did not achieve significant longevity in the automotive market.
