Lozier is a term that may refer to several entities, including historical companies, individuals, and products. This article will focus on the most notable references associated with the name Lozier.

Lozier Corporation[edit | edit source]

The Lozier Corporation was an American company known for its production of high-end automobiles in the early 20th century. Founded by Henry Abraham Lozier, a successful businessman with interests in bicycles and boats before venturing into automobiles, the Lozier Motor Company started its operations in Plattsburgh, New York, before moving its headquarters to Detroit, Michigan. Lozier automobiles were recognized for their luxury, performance, and durability, competing with other luxury brands of the era such as Packard and Pierce-Arrow.

History[edit | edit source]

Henry Lozier made his fortune in the manufacturing of sewing machines and bicycles before turning his attention to automobiles. In 1900, he founded the Lozier Motor Company, which quickly established itself as a maker of high-quality, luxury automobiles. The company's vehicles were among the most expensive and prestigious on the market, often custom-made to the specifications of wealthy clients.

Demise[edit | edit source]

Despite the quality and prestige of Lozier automobiles, the company struggled with high production costs and limited production capacity. By the early 1920s, the rise of mass-produced, affordable cars from manufacturers like Ford and General Motors put pressure on luxury automobile makers. The Lozier Corporation ceased operations in 1918, leaving behind a legacy of automotive excellence but also a cautionary tale of the challenges faced by luxury manufacturers in a rapidly changing market.
