Austin Motor Company

Austin Motor Company je bila britanska kompanija za proizvodnju automobila. Osnovana je 1905. godine, a 1952. je postala dio British Motor Corporation Ltd. Njen automobilski brend se koristio sve do 1987. Prava na njen zaštitni znak danas drži kinesko poduzeće SAIC nakon što ga je preuzelo od bankrotirane tvrtke Nanjing Automobile Corporation.

• Austin je također proizvodio teretna vozila, od kojih je najpoznatiji FG, ranije poznat kao Morris FG, koji je bio u univerzalnoj upotrebi u Britaniji 196o-ih, pa ih je, između ostalih, koristila i BBC za televizijske prijenose. Model FG je kasnije preuzet i od tvrtke Leyland, te je poznat kao Leyland FG.

Avioni

Za vrijeme prvog svjetskog rata Austin je po licenci proizvodio avione, kao što je Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5a, ali je proizveo i vlastite modele, od kojih nijedan nije otišao dalje od prototipa. To su:

• Austin-Ball A.F.B.1 (lovac)
• Austin A.F.T.3 (lovac)
• Austin Greyhound (lovac)
