- Saxon Motor Car Company Automobile Engine, 1916 - Detroit's Saxon Motor Car Company introduced its two-passenger Model A roadster in 1913. At $395 it was priced like an inexpensive cyclecar, but with a build quality closer to that of a full-sized automobile. Most cyclecars relied on one- or two-cylinder, air-cooled motorcycle engines, but the Saxon used a four-cylinder, water-cooled engine producing 12 horsepower.
