Orphan (car)


The term orphan car accurately applies to any marque of motor vehicle built by a manufacturer that has discontinued business entirely. The term is sometimes inaccurately applied to a discontinued marque from a still-existing vehicle manufacturer or a sub-marque. In the case of a revived marque where a newer company resuscitates a discontinued brand, only the original vehicles are accurately considered orphans.
