America (Spanish automobile)

The four-cylinder "valveless" model, the "Tipo A", had a primitive synchromesh gearbox and worm final drive.

One of his early designs was an elastic wheel intended to replace the inner tube tire, though the invention did not gain much acceptance due to technical issues.

Another of his designs was a type of engine distribution system in which valves were replaced by what he called "rotary conical distributors."

The general representation of the company was entrusted to Arcadi de Bobes, who had a showroom at 30 Balmes Street, where he also sold French Hurtu cars and British Dennis trucks.
