The Duesenberg Model A was the first series production passenger car from Duesenberg. The Model A was also known as the Duesenberg Straight Eight, due to its 4.3L inline eight engine, which was the first to be fitted to a production car. A wide range of open and closed body styles were available from an assortment of coachbuilders, these styles included phaeton, tourer, and coupe. Only an estimated 650 examples were made before the end of production in 1926.
