The Black Prince was a British 4 wheeled cyclecar made in small numbers in 1920 by Black Prince Motors of Barnard Castle, Durham. The car was designed by H G Wright and was available with either a single or twin cylinder Union air cooled engine rated at 2.75 horse power. Drive was through a two speed belt system although gear transmission was an option[1]. Both the open body and the chassis were made of wood. The flexibility of this was used as suspension[1]. The number made is not known but at least two survive[2].
