Automobiles

The first Hotchkiss cars were Mercedes-like, and offered in two models at the 1903 Paris motor show. Powered by T-head fours, they featured ball-bearing crankshafts and round radiators, and, of course, the namesake drivetrain. Shortly thereafter, a more extensive range of cars was offered, fours and sixes of various sizes, T-heads and L-heads, but World War I diverted the company back to origins of weapons manufacturing.
