Durant Motors was founded by William Durant, fomerly of GM. he established a branch plant in 1921, and by 1922 the first car was built at that plant.

Fonction

Owner driven passenger vehicle for general transportation.

Technique

This vehicle is typical of closed Tourer design popular in the late 1920's. Closed cars, with their improved comfort and protection from the elements, increased their share of the car market in North America from 17% in 1920 to 85% by 1927. This vehicle represented Durant Motor's entry into the 4 cylinder engine market. This trend was not so much the result of a change in consumer taste as of the availability of cheaper, all-metal, closed bodies which cost a fraction of the price of composite wood and metal bodies. The cheaper all-metal bodies were made possible by developments in steel manufacturing and metal stamping techniques after the First World War.
