The Model 40 Tourer was introduced in 1909 and was the company's first four-cylinder car, sharing the production line with the 2-cylinder Model 20. The following year, all Oaklands had become four-cylinder cars and the slogan 'Cars with a Conscience' became the theme.
By 1932, the Oakland Motor Car Company was absorbed by its offspring, to become the Pontiac Motor Company.
The Model 40 was powered by a 316 cubic-inch four-cylinder engine delivering 40 horsepower. The base price in 1909 was $1,600.
