Minerva was a Belgian luxury automobile manufacturer founded by a Dutchnan, Sylvain de Jong, and active from 1902 to 1938. The history of Minerva began in 1883 when Sylvain de Jong started a bicylcle and motorcycle factory in Antwerp, Belgium. He was the first to export engines to the UK to power the very first Triumph.

Some of the famous Minerva's customers include kings of Belgium, Sweden and Norway and Henry Ford.

In the 1930s, Minerva company changed its name to Société Nouvelle Minerva, because of the financial crisis at the time. In 1934, Minerva decided to merge with another well-known Belgial automaker named Imperia. The latter continued to manufacture Minerva cars for a year. Some of the cars and trucks were exported to England and France under the name of Minerva-Imperias from 1937. Just before the beginning of the war, Minerva was bought by a group of businessmen from Verviers. After World War II, the company produced Land Rovers. See also the ads Minerva wanted below.
