Short description: Brass era cyclecar
The Simplic was a cyclecar manufactured from 1914 to 1923 by George Wadden in Surrey, England.[1] The first Simplic was a 4-wheeled vehicle powered by a 5/6 hp air-cooled JAP engine.[2] Transmission was by epicyclic gear and belt final drive.[2] Production stopped later that year due to World War I.
Wadden redesigned the car at the end of the war, and the Simplic now featured an 8/10 hp JAP engine and twin speed chain drive.[1] Although selling for only £185, and advertised as "Positively the best value in Cyclecars", production ended in 1923.[2]
