Adria (automobile) explained

Adria
Production:1921-1922
Engine:four-cylinder 2932 cc engine made by Supreme
Assembly:Batavia, New York

The Adria was an American assembled car that was promoted though not actually mass-produced. The address of the makers was given as Batavia, New York. About 20 to 40 prototypes were built from 1921 to 1922,[1] but that was as far as the project went. The five-seat touring car was advertised at US$1495.[1]

It was to have a four-cylinder 2932 cc engine made by Supreme and a 3-part frame chassis, which resulted in a patent dispute with Parenti Motors.[1]
