Between 1902 and 1909, Henry Ford and his team at the Ford Motor Company produced a number of car models, including:
- Ford Model A (1903-1904): The Model A was the first car produced by the Ford Motor Company. It had a 2-cylinder engine and was capable of producing 8 horsepower.
- Ford Model C (1904-1905): The Model C was an upgraded version of the Model A, with a 4-cylinder engine that produced 15 horsepower.
- Ford Model F (1905-1906): The Model F was a 2-seater runabout with a 4-cylinder engine that produced 20 horsepower.
- Ford Model K (1906-1908): The Model K was a luxury car with a 6-cylinder engine that produced 40 horsepower. It was a larger and more expensive car than previous Ford models.
- Ford Model N (1906-1908): The Model N was a small, affordable car with a 4-cylinder engine that produced 15 horsepower. It was sometimes referred to as the “Tin Lizzie.”
- Ford Model R (1907-1908): The Model R was a racing car with a 4-cylinder engine that produced 40 horsepower. It set several speed records in 1907 and 1908.
- Ford Model S (1907-1908): The Model S was a runabout with a 4-cylinder engine that produced 15 horsepower. It was similar to the Model N but had a more powerful engine.
These models, particularly the Model N and Model K, provided important lessons and innovations that contributed to the success of the Model T, which was introduced in 1908.
