The Addison Motor Company was an English automobile company based in Liverpool. James Harold Atherton was the sole proprietor and works manager from 1903 until 1918.[1]
The Template:Cvt two-cylinder engine was controlled by variable-lift inlet valves. It was promoted as "the Mercedes of the tri-car world".[2][3]
The company also produced motorcycles in 1904–1905.[2]
The Addison touring car and tri-car were shown and well received by The Motor at the ninth Liverpool Motor Show.[4]
The Addison tri-car won a silver medal at a hill-climbing contest held by the University of Liverpool Motor Club on 13 July 1905.[5]
In January 1912, it was reported that the company was so successful that they had to open a separate showroom at 7 Berry Street in Liverpool for their Alldays and Phoenix cars.[6]
Another car the company sold was the Speedwell.[7]
Around 1922, the company expanded to a larger garage.[8]
