Période

1910

Canada

This company was linked to Ransom Eli Olds who made his first gasoline car in 1896 and organized, in 1897, the Olds Motor Vehicle Co. (in 1899, Olds Motor Works). His car, the Curved Dash, was very popular. It was imported in Canada from 1901 until 1904. He left the company in 1904 to create the RE Olds Co. which he changed to the REO Car Co. and later, the REO Motor Car co. The company prospered. In 1905, a factory was established in Canada, in the Packard Electric Co. Ltd. plant of Ste-Catharines, to manufacture under license, Oldsmobile cars. This was not done as a subsidiary of Olds Motor Works. In 1907, the Canadian factory stopped production and remained a selling and servicing agency. In 1909, the factory was occupied again but this time by the REO Motor Car Co. of Canada Limited formed by Canadian interests. The first cars assembled were two-cylinder, lightweight roadster or touring models. After the first World war, they produced taxicabs, marketing cars, and speed wagon until 1922. They stopped automobile production in 1936 to concentrate on truck manufacturing.
