Black Motor Company, produced in the United States from 1906 to 1911, was an early automobile manufacturer based in Chicago, Illinois, founded by Sibley H. Black. The company built a range of passenger cars, runabouts, touring cars, and commercial vehicles powered by single-cylinder, twin-cylinder, and four-cylinder engines during the pioneering years of the American automobile industry. Black vehicles were known for their straightforward engineering, reliability, and accessibility, helping establish the company as one of the notable independent automakers of the Brass Era. Characterized by practical design and early automotive innovation, Black Motor Company ceased operations in 1911 amid increasing competition and industry consolidation.
