  • MAC is een historisch Indiaas merk van scooters en driewielige transportvoertuigen. De oorspronkelijke naam van het bedrijf was API (Automobile Products of India Ltd.). Het was gevestigd in , toen nog een plaats in de omgeving van Bombay. Het was in 1949 opgericht en kreeg in 1955, samen met Enfield toestemming van de Indiase regering om gemotoriseerde tweewielers te gaan produceren. Beide bedrijven gingen scooters produceren, maar Enfield staakte deze productie al snel en ging motorfietsen bouwen. De grootste concurrent van API werd halverwege de jaren zestig Bajaj, dat 80% van de scooterproductie in handen kreeg door Vespa scooters in licentie te gaan maken. 20% Van de markt was in handen van API, dat Lambretta scooters maakte.
