abadal

The Abadal was a Spanish car manufactured between 1912 and 1923, named after Fracisco Abadal. Considered a fast luxury car, it was closely patterned on the Hispano and offered in two models. One had a 3104cc four-cylinder engine while the other had a 4521cc six-cylinder engine.Soon after the inception of the Abadal line, the Belgian company Imperia began building Abadals under license as Imperia-Abadals. In 1916 Abadal acquired the Buick agency, and Barcelona-built Abadals after that year had Buick power units, and featured custom coachwork. These cars were called Abadal-Buicks. M. A. Van Roggen (formerly of Springuel) took over the Belgian operation soon after, and built around 170 more Impéria-Abadals. Among the models produced were a 2992cc 16-valve four-cylinder OHC sports model and three prototype 5630cc straight-eights. The company ceased automobile production in 1923.
