Ford Model K, 1906

01

Artifact Overview

Ford Motor Company introduced its Model K in 1906. The upscale, six-cylinder car was larger and -- at $2,500 -- considerably more expensive than the company's four-cylinder Model N launched the same year. Production of the Model K ended in 1908 with the arrival of the Model T. Affordable cars for the mass market were Ford's future.
