Motorenfabrik Paul Baer GmbH was a German engine and automobile manufacturer.[1][2]

The company was founded in Berlin 1908 to make engines which were supplied to several early automobile manufacturers. Between 1920 and 1926, a small car was built in the city under the brand Baer.

The 4/14 hp car was powered by a 770cc two-cylinder two-stroke engine.[1]

One of the vehicle took part in the small car race at the AVUS in Berlin in 1923.[3]
