REO Wolverine

Automobiles

The Wolverine was a car sold by the REO Motor Car Company of Lansing, Michigan, as a companion brand to the Flying Cloud. REO introduced it in April 1927 and built it until 1928. It shared the new 1927 chassis, which had four-wheel hydraulic brakes, with the Flying Cloud, and the two were offered as two price ranges of the same basic car. The Wolverine used a Continental engine, artillery wheels and a different pattern of horizontal radiator louvers, and was sold with a low-lined Brougham body for five people with two wide doors. REO had its biggest output ever in 1928, with about 29,000 cars delivered, but the Wolverine was dropped at the end of that year and production concentrated on the Flying Cloud.
