Albion 15

Automobiles

The Albion 15 was the last private car sold by Albion Motors of Glasgow, built from 1912 to 1915 with a 2492 cc four-cylinder engine according to the model list in the history of the company. The same article describes the last private Albions as being powered by a 15 hp monobloc four of 2492 cc. Passenger car production ceased in 1915, by which time commercial vehicles had been the company focus for several years. In 1920 Albion announced that estate cars were available again, based on a small bus chassis, though it is not known whether any were actually made. The Albion 15 therefore closes the line of private cars that began with the 1900 dogcart and the twin-cylinder Albion 8 and 12.
