NEW
Hudson
Come In, try Hudson wttti the oil
new. higrvempretsion Super-Six en
gine (the most powerful American
six built today) or the masterful
Super-Eight. Both provide wonder
fully alert power for a new type of
motor ear with an exclusive "slip
down" aosign.
Millions say the New Hudson is the retim
ing beauty in the automobile parade
but you can't really know this frrtet ear
until you drive it end you're invited to
do just that now!
Hudson, with the new, HI h.p, high
eompression Super-Sii en fine or the
manterful Super-Eight, takes you away
with new tip, and outstrips the held with
staying power.
But amazingly alive engine aren't the
whole story of this lUr performer for '49.
Hudson has a new hug-the-roed way of
going In eroM-winds and on every coo
cejvable kind of highway.
This all happens because as la widely
known the lower to the ground a ear
can he built, the more stability K wtO
have. Hudson has the loweat center of
gravity in any American stock earl
This remarkable car has floors rereMed
down within a base frame (Hudson is the
only car you step dtnm into), enabling
Hudson to build the lowest oar on the
highway, only five feet from ground to
top while maintaining more than ade
quate head room!
You sense a delightful conformity to the
road the minute you begin to ride, and
this give you a grand feeling of safe weH
being! This feeling is further enhanced
by the eaae with which this car is oper
ated, and by the quiet with which Hudson
glides along.
Come in, let us show you why Hudson's
great engines and fabulous Matep-downN
design principle put this car so far
ahead it la a protftrd twt-ermit in
motor ear value!
