Three fine autos owned by Finnish company

[Juha Paavo Kaita]

Here is a photo showing three fine automobiles. I was told that the cars were owned by a company called "Kymi". I thought I have identified two of them but now I have followed your talk about NAG and Stoewer and started to wonder again.

The first car in the left I thought is Stoewer. The second is Steyr or Benz. The car in the very right is still unknown to me. Hope to hear your opinios once again.

Hi,

First left looks like a Detroiter, middle is probably a Benz, and not yet sure of thge one on the right.

Could the car in the very right be an Adler 25/55 PS, with the almost 6,5 litre 60 hk engine perhaps. Much bigger than the taxi-cabs and family cars of the same marque, that were relatively common here.

Other large Adler models to consider from the immediatle pre WWI period are:35/80 PS, 9,081-litre 85 hp, 20/50 PS, 5,229-l., 55 hp.

15/40 PS, 3,866-l, 45 hp. All four cylinders.

I agree that the car in the middle is a Benz, definetly not a Steyr.

The car on the right looks like an Adler. Not sure what the other cars are. The car in the middle is German for sure.

Once again about the car at far right. The hatch in the hood is so typical for the Adlers before WWI, even the smaller ones have it.
