Marklin-Ashton Motors
Seeing the potential of the first gasoline-powered engine, the Marklin-Ashton Motors was founded in 1880 with the goal of manufacturing a self-propelled vehicle for carrying people. Following a lengthy development, the Marklin-Ashton Automobile Model 1 was unveiled to the 1893 Royal Exhibition in Griswald. The Model 1 is a three-wheeled car with a one-cylinder gasoline-powered engine, capable of 0.9-metric-horsepower. About 30 Model 1's were built between 1893 to 1899.
Marklin-Ashton found more success with the Marklin-Ashton Viscount. The Viscount is a four-wheeled car with a 1L 3-metric-horsepower single-cylinder engine capable of achieving speeds of 19 km/h. The Viscount was also the company's first mass-produced vehicle, taking inspiration from production techniques seen in Sante Reze. By the end of the production, Marklin-Ashton produced a total of 3,000 Viscounts.
