'''Albany''' is an [[United States of America|American]] luxury automotive company appearing in the {{HD}} of the {{S}}.
==Description==
Albany is one of the largest car manufacturers in the [[HD Universe]]. They generally manufacture luxury cars and light trucks. In ''GTA V'', they have a [[Mosley Auto Service|dealership]] in [[Davis]], [[Los Santos (HD Universe)|Los Santos]].
The company has a variety of logos: There are two common logos that are widely used: a silver "A"-shaped trapezoid with a crown within, and a crowned rectangular emblem with a diagonal split. Although the latter looks more stylistically modern than the first logo, they both seem to be used interchangeably with little consistency. The text logos, however, do seem to follow an older and modern pattern, where modern cars usually have modern sans-serif style text logo while older models have a cursive logo. The change to the modern text logo seems to have been in the 90s.
==Influence==
The manufacturer appears to be based on the American automobile manufacturer {{WP|Cadillac}}, although some of its vehicles take inspiration from those manufactured by {{WP|Lincoln Motor Company|Lincoln}} and {{WP|Buick}}.
