About

Abbott-Detroit was an American automobile manufacturer that operated from 1909 to 1918. Based in Detroit, Michigan, the company was founded by Charles and J. Frank Abbott, who previously worked for other automotive companies. One of the notable models produced by Abbott-Detroit was the Abbott-Detroit "44," introduced in 1913. It was a stylish and powerful touring car equipped with a six-cylinder engine, providing impressive performance for its time. Despite its initial success, Abbott-Detroit faced financial difficulties, which led to changes in ownership and management. Production ceased in 1918 due to challenges during World War I and the post-war economic downturn. The company's assets were later sold, and Abbott-Detroit ceased to exist as an independent automobile manufacturer.
