Dorchester has a long and storied history with the automobile industry. The town was home to one of the first car dealerships in the country, and later became a hub for the manufacture of luxury cars.

The first car dealership in Dorchester was opened in 1903 by Charles Duryea, who is credited with inventing the first gasoline-powered car. Duryea's dealership was located on Washington Street, and sold cars made by his company, the Duryea Motor Wagon Company.
