Thomas Humber's bicycle business was established in Coventry in 1868, and progressed into the Automotive Industry came via Harry Lawsons British Motor Syndicate, from which it purchased the rights to various unlikely automobile designs dreamt up by American E J Pennington. Freeing itself from Lawson, the reconstituted company commenced motor car production in 1900 with the unconventional (front-wheel drive, rear-wheel steered) M D Voiturette. A more conventional range of De Dion-powered light cars soon followed, which was notable for its use of shaft drive in an era when chain was the norm for such vehicles. Four-cylinder 12hp and 20hp models, designed by Louis Coatalen, had been added by 1903, but that year’s most significant introduction was the Humberette. Powered by a 5hp single-cylinder engine and featured two-speeds-plus-reverse transmission and, of course, shaft drive. It was the first Humber motor car to be produced in significant numbers There was also a 6½hp Royal Humberette and both versions were built at the firm’s Beeston and Coventry factories. Production ceased at the end of the 1905 season, but the Humberette name would be revived in 1913 for a new v-twin engined cyclecar.
