The Standard Electric automobile was an electric car manufactured by the Standard Electric Car Company in Jackson, Michigan from 1912 to 1915.[1]
History edit
The Standard Electric used Westinghouse electric motors and claimed to have a range of 110 miles on a charge. It was operated by a tiller from the left-hand side. The controller had six forward speeds, and had a top speed of 20-mph. The model M was a closed model Coupe or open Runabout, and priced from $1,785 to $1,900, equivalent to $58,574 in 2023.[2]
In 1913 the company name was changed to Standard Car Manufacturing Company. In November 1915, Standard Car closed and sold their plant to Benjamin Briscoe who moved in to build his Argo cyclecar.[2]
