Charron-Laycock is an English automobile manufacturer founded in 1919 by Davison Dalziel following the merger of the companies Charron Limited (formerly Automobiles Charron-Girardot-Voigt (CGV) founded in 1902 by Fernand Charron, Léonce Girardot and Émile Voigt) and W.S. Laycock founded by William Samuel Laycock.

Producing around 300 vehicles a year at the beginning of the 20th century, its clients included Charles I, Louis Blériot, André Michelin, William Kissam Vanderbilt and James Gordon Bennett Jr. Charron-Laycock was hailed as the Rolls-Royce of small cars by The Times in 1921.
