Saxon

While small cars were already popular in Europe it was a new realization in America so in 1914, Saxon offered the first genuine small automobile for $395. With a 96-inch wheelbase, roomy body, ample leg room and generous doors, it was powered by a four cylinder engine capable of up to 40 MPH.
