Ecco (United States) - AllCarIndex

Ecco was an American automotive manufacturer founded around 1982 by Edwards CarCo., located in Arlington, Virginia. The company specialized in producing kit cars, which allowed enthusiasts to build their own vehicles using a combination of factory components and personal assembly.

The primary model offered by Ecco was a coupé designed to fit the chassis of the Volkswagen Beetle. This model featured a fiberglass body, which contributed to its lightweight construction. Much of the assembly work was completed at the factory, simplifying the process for customers who purchased the kit.

Ecco's approach to automotive design reflected a niche market for customizable vehicles during the early 1980s, catering to individuals interested in unique car-building experiences. However, the brand did not achieve significant commercial success and remains a lesser-known name in the history of American automotive manufacturing.
