The smallest 1904 model was the ''Elmore [[Convertible\|Convertible]] [[runabout\|Runabout]]''. Equipped with a tonneau, it could seat 4 passengers and sold for just US$650, making it one of the least-expensive vehicles on the market. The flat-mounted single-cylinder engine, situated at the center of the car, produced 6.5 hp (4.8 kW). A 2-speed transmission was fitted. The car weighed 1050 lb (476 kg).

			The ''Elmore Runabout'' was next in line. It could seat 2 passengers and sold for US$800. The vertically-mounted [[straight-2]], also situated at the center of the car, produced 8 hp (6 kW). A 3-speed transmission was fitted. The angle iron-framed car weighed 1400 lb (635 kg).

			The top model was the ''[[Elmore Tonneau]]''. It could seat 4 passengers and sold for US$1400. The flat-mounted straight-2 was situated at the front of the car, produced 12 hp (8.9 kW). A 3-speed transmission was fitted. The angle iron-framed car weighed 1500 lb (680 kg).

			In 1908, Elmore's three-cylinder two-stroke caught the attention of [[William C. Durant]], founder of [[General Motors Corporation\|General Motors]]. He purchased the company the following year, with Elmore becoming one of General Motors' divisions. After Durant was forced out of General Motors in 1910, the Elmore marque was soon cut, along with several other underperforming brands, to help General Motors achieve financial stability.
