Holyoke was an American automobile company started in Holyoke, Massachusetts in 1899. [1] The first car had a two-cylinder, 7 hp motor.

Greuter, who started the business of making gasoline carriages and wagons about a year ago in the old Standard machine company building, and at present employs about 40 men."
