Centaur [1] (United States) - AllCarIndex

Centaur Motor Vehicle Company was established in Buffalo, New York, operating between 1902 and 1903. The company produced both petrol and electric vehicles, with the petrol models featuring 5 or 6 horsepower runabouts and tourers priced between $700 and $800. The electric runabout was offered at a higher price of $850.

Centaur Motor Vehicle Company appeared to favor the promotion of its electric vehicles, suggesting that "the shrewdest dealers are pushing dearies," although it ultimately sold few cars of either type. After ceasing production of its own vehicles, the company transitioned to become agents for Cadillac and Yale, marking a shift in its business focus.
