Maxim Motors was an American manufacturer specializing in firefighting apparatus, founded in 1914 by Carlton Maxim in Middleborough, Massachusetts. The company gained recognition for producing high-quality fire engines, serving municipalities across the United States for decades. Maxim Motors introduced cab-forward fire trucks in the 1950s, competing with industry leaders like Mack and Seagrave. Despite its success, the company faced increasing competition and ceased operations in 1989. In 2009, the Maxim brand was revived by Greenwood Emergency Vehicles, continuing its legacy in fire apparatus manufacturing.
