HUDSON BUILDS
MUCH ADVANCED
SuPER-S| CAR

To the attractive bodies and re-
markable motors which always have
characterized Hudson cars. there is
added, in the present series. an ease
of driving and of control which will
make their operation still more sat
isfactory and delightful.
Hudson has been fortunate in the
past several seasons in that the gem
eral lines and character Of its car
we're so well established that mo
great alterations or improvements
have been called for.
The company's engineers, there
fore, have been free to eonfine their
efforts to those advancements and
refinements which make the car more
pleasing and desirable. In some
cases these changes would never be
known to the average Hudson own
er; he would think. unless these in
novations were pointed out to him,
that he had merely been fortunate
enough to obtain a car which oper-
ated particularly well in every de-
tail.
AS the cost of materials has per-
mitted, the price of Hudsons has
been consistently and progressively
reduced. Price reductions by Hud-
son have not been cuts at some GER
tain seasons of the year: the policy
being to pass on to the public econo-
mics effected through the buying
power, credit strength and manufac-
turing efficiency of the Hudson or

chased in the full confidence that

the most popular cars on the Amer

rugged, accessible motor with bore
of A S-S inches and a stroke of five
inches. Essex first achieved fame by
is record breaking dashes across
he country from New York to San

these tests were made which proved
conclusiva - that the car had the
stuff in it It's popularity has aris-
en- as the public has become better
acquainted with it until today it is
looked upon as one OF the best buys
in the light car field.
Besides building a number OF reg
ular models Essex has created a new
type of closed car in the Coach A
model of the same standard OF high
quality which has always character
lied Essex co1struction-one that will
serve owners in all seasons. and Of
fered at a price which is but little
more than the cost of an open car.
The coach fulfils the requirements
of business and professional men
with economy and satisfaction And
it also is amply large to meet the
family need in both city and country
service. 1t will crafty all demands
for utility and reliability.
There is much about the Essex
coach that will appeal. besides its
attractive appearance. All controls
are easy to reach and to operate.
