The Hupmobile was an
automobile
built from 1909 through 1940 by the Hupp Motor Company, which was located at 345 Bellevue Avenue in
Detroit
,
Michigan
. Its first car, the Model 20, was introduced to the public at the
Detroit Auto Show
in February 1909. The company initially produced 500 vehicles.
Robert Craig Hupp
(June 2, 1877 in
Grand Rapids, Michigan
– 1931), a former employee of
Oldsmobile
and
Ford
, founded the company with his brother Louis Gorham Hupp (November 13, 1872 in Michigan – December 10, 1961 in Michigan) in 1908. Production began in 1909. In 1910, production increased by more than 5000. Following disagreements with his financial backers Robert Hupp sold his stock in the Hupp Motor Car Company and established the short-lived
RCH Automobile Company
, later the
Hupp-Yeats Electric Car Company
. In 1912, Hupp would be one of two automakers pioneering the use of all-steel bodies, joining
BSA
in the UK. Hupp's panels were produced by
Hale & Kilburn
, which was run by
Edward Budd
.
Carl Wickman
, a car dealer in
Hibbing
,
Minnesota
, used an unsold 7-passenger model as the first vehicle for what became
Greyhound
. In 1913 Frank E. Watts was hired as a designer.
