CROWD record-smasher here and everywhere—that’s the amazing new Hudson!

And no wonder! Hudson is an entirely new type of motor car—a car no one else in America is prepared to build today! It’s just five feet from ground to top, but with more inside head room and roomier seats than in any other mass-produced car.

Hudsen is the only American-built car you step down into when entering, not up on—yet it maintains road clearance.

Hudson’s new, all steel Monobilt body-and-frame® is the only motortar construction that completely encircles you, even outside the rear wheels, with a rugged box-steel foundation frame.

You ride within this frame—cradled between axles—not on top of the frame as in other cars. And as you ride, Hudson’s combination of unique construction and comfort features gives you a sensation of snug safety and serene, smooth going unlike anything you've known before!

Try automatic gear shifting in forward speeds as provided by Hudson’s “Drive-Master” transmission. Take the wheel behind Hudson’s all-new Super-Six engine—the most powerful six built

* today — or the masterful Super-Eight.

Stop in at the nearest Hudson showroom. Discover why Hudson is the Number-One attraction today!

YOU RIDE WITHIN A BASE FRAME, NOT ON TOP OF IT!

Hudson's new, all steel Monobilt body-and-frame* makes it possible to move floor and seats down to harmonize with the new lower top. You get the safety of girder protection all around, even outside the rear wheels — with every unit welded into one solid structure that provides unusual ruggedness and stability, and greatly minimizes the need for service attention.
