Alsace (automobile)
The Alsace was a French automobile marque manufactured from 1905 to 1924. The company, located in Mulhouse, Alsace-Lorraine (then part of the German Empire), produced a range of vehicles, primarily focusing on luxury touring cars. While detailed production numbers are scarce and fragmented, available historical records suggest relatively low production volumes, possibly reflecting a focus on bespoke or higher-end models.
Alsace automobiles were known for their robust construction and relatively sophisticated engineering for their time. Specific engine specifications varied across different models, but generally utilized relatively large engines for the era. Their design often incorporated advanced features for the period, though the exact details of these innovations require further historical research. The company's relatively short lifespan, coupled with the political upheavals surrounding World War I and the subsequent changes in the Alsace-Lorraine region, contributed to a lack of comprehensive records regarding their exact models and market success. Further research into French automotive archives and period publications is necessary to fully detail the history and specifics of Alsace automobiles.
