It was a two-seater, with a long hood and short tail (where a pair of spare tires were mounted), characteristic of the period,[3] and weighing in at only 1800 lb (816 kg). It was priced at US$1500,[3] compared to $650 for the high-volume Oldsmobile Runabout[4] and the two-seat Ford Model C "doctor's car" at US$850,[5] but below the US$1600 of the Oakland 40,[6] and well below even American's lowest-priced model, which was US$4250 (its highest was US$5250).[7]
The Runabout's 477-in3 (7819 cc) (4.5×5.0-inch, 114×127 mm) six-cylinder produced 40 hp (30 kW), and Colt claimed the car would hit 60 mph (100 km/h), a considerable feat in 1907.
