The Alvis 10/30 is a car introduced by British car maker Alvis Car and Engineering Company Ltd in 1920. It was the company's first production vehicle and was made until 1923. A range of body styles was available.
The car is powered by a water cooled, four cylinder 1460 cc four cylinder engine usually of the side valve type but some had overhead valves. The engine had a bore of 68mm and a stroke of 100mm.[1] A Solex carburettor was used. This drove the rear wheels via a cone clutch and four speed gearbox. The chassis had rigid axles and half elliptic springs.[1]
On the home market the car cost £450 in chassis form up to £470 with factory body.[2]
In 1921 the car could be ordered with a larger 1598cc engine as the Alvis 11/40. The extra capacity was obtained by lengthening the stroke to 110mm. It was claimed to be able to reach Шаблон:Convert.[2]
In 1922 the 11/40 was replaced by the 12/40 with the same engine but improved gearbox and rear axle. For the 1924 model year the 12/40 was designated 'TC', and for 1925 'TD'. The TD 12/40 was available with four-wheel brakes as an optional extra.
In 1923 the chassis cost £470 reducing to £375 in 1925.[2]
It continued in production until Autumn 1925 by which time 1887 had been made.[2]
