It had one wide seat that could accommodate four people. After financial difficulties and Gary Davis’ fraud indictment, the Davis Motor Car Company shut down in 1948. Although it only built about fifteen of these micro-cars, nearly all of them are still in existence. The absence of external styling on the Divan presaged the emphasis on aerodynamics by later automakers.
