The Hispano-Suiza type 45 "Alphonse XIII" is one of the Hispano-Suiza entries the open record knows by name and by date — in 1912, and by little else. That is not nothing: a name in the catalogue is where a car's story starts to be recoverable.
Family and rivals
Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Oldsmobile Series 40, the Bugatti type 15 limousine, the Lancia Zeta-12/15hp — show what else the money bought that year. Its Hispano-Suiza stablemates include the HIspano-Suiza K8 and the Hispano-Suiza Alfonso XIII.
What it costs now
There is no federal ownership record for the Hispano-Suiza type 45 "Alphonse XIII" — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
The record
The open record for the Hispano-Suiza type 45 "Alphonse XIII" carries no verified engine, output, weight or price yet. MotorJury does not fill gaps with guesses; this entry gives the model a home in the catalogue and grows as sourced specifications and photographs arrive. Corrections: corrections@motorjury.com.
