NEW HUPMOB|LES
MUCH IMPROVED
Demonstrations of New Models
Will Be Started Next Week
BY Service Company.

The new Hupmobilies. as announced
| for 1914. will contain no radical change:
| from the previous years models. Mum
erous refinements and improvements
however, have been added, which give
the cars far greater value than ever
The Hupmobile line is handled here by
the Washington Auto Service Company,
which will begin demonstrations of the
new models next week
Describing the new Hupmobile, c. D.
Hastings, general manager of the Hupp
Motor Car Company, of Detroit, said:
In the two years that the Hupmobile
80 has been on the market we have
not found It necessary to incorpora e 4
single radical change OF design. In 1911
when the Hupmobile 81 was first an
nounced it contained features which
were then new to American makers.
These same features are now being
standardized for the first time on many
of Americas finest cars. They have
been standard on the Hupmobile for
two years and in two years successful
work they have ably justified their fit
ness.
''The Hupmobile was the first medi-
um priced car on the American market
with the Iong-stroke motor. This ad-
vanced type of motor Is now being
adopted by all progressive motor car
manufacturers, for il is common knowl-
edge among experts that 1t is more ef-
fective and efficient than motors of the
square type.
Mechanical Betterment.
The principal mechanical features
that distinguished the Hupmobiles two
years ago are still abreast of the times.
Our engineers, however, have been
working patiently and persistently on
hundreds of minor improvements. all
of which go to make better mechanical
harmony, until today i don't believe
there is a smoother running motor on
the market than the Hupmobile long
stroke %.
ton that has been made in the new
'32' models is the provision for the in
stailation of the Westinghouse electric
starting and lightning system on all
types of cars. This is furnished at
slight additional cost, with other op-
tional equipment, such as oversize tires,
rims, spare rims, etc.
THE Hupmobiie body design will re-
main the same The construction We
have adopted enables us to get our cars
closer to the ground than any other
type. with the exception of the under
long. low. straight lines, the cowl
front forming perfect stream line eff ,
feet with the motor bonnet and radi /
ator. You will notice for 1914 that the
style body construction is being adopted !!
by the leading American makers.
Color Scheme Changed. |
THE color scheme of the new cars is !
slightly changed. The running gear is |
deep, rich red. with black stripes, and !
this, together with the black body, |
makes a very pleasing combination.
