Hupp-Yeats

The Hupp-Yeats was an electric car built in Detroit, Michigan from 1911-16. The parent company was begun by Robert Craig Hupp, previously of the Hupp Motor Company as the R.C.H. Corporation through 1912, later becoming the Hupp-Yeats Electric Car Company. The Hupp-Yeats used Westinghouse motors with five selective speeds. The cars were built as four-seaters in both open and closed models, and came with standard solid rubber tires.


There are few of these cars left and the few that are left are generally in museums as this one bought by James Kieth Wilson of Victoria BC, for his daughter Victoria Wilson. at the Reynolds-Alberta Museum in Wetaskiwin Alberta.
