To 76 Horsepower—Without Jidded Size or Cylinders Three years ago, when Hudson engineers brought out the Light Six, it was welcomed as the ideal car. A smaller bore and longer stroke lightened engine parts immensely. That lightness re- duced vibration. The engine was a marvel for high speed, economy, flexibility and power.

To 76 Horsepower—Without Jidded Size or Cylinders Three years ago, when Hudson engineers brought out the Light Six, it was welcomed as the ideal car. A smaller bore and longer stroke lightened engine parts immensely. That lightness re- duced vibration. The engine was a marvel for high speed, economy, flexibility and power. That motor very quickly drove heavy sixes out. It became the pattern type. In two years it multiplied Hudson prestige and quadrupled Hudson production. BETTERED 80 PER CENT Let us compare that Hudson Six-40 with the present Super-Six. That motor speed capacity is now increased 50 per cent. The Six-40, at high speed, delivered 42 horsepower. The Super-Six delivers 76 horsepower. Yet both engines are Sixes. The cylinder size is identical. No extra cylinders, size or complications. That increase in horsepower of 80 per cent shows the saving in vibration. The Six-40 has made 55 miles per hour. The Super-Six covered 100 miles at an average speed of miles per hour—a 7-passenger stock car, under American Automobile Asso- ciation supervision. That breaks every record on stock cars, with engines of any type. It also has broken all official records in quick acceleration. The Hudson SupenSix $1375 Mark those comparisons. And remember that the Hudson Six-40 was the leading high-grade Six. THE MEANING OF SPEED A motor car engine is measured by its possible high speed. That signifies lack of vibration. And swift revolution is the only way to high power combined with Ughtness and flexibility. High speed in a motor means vast reserve power. It means ability to creep on high gear, to pick up quickly, to mount hills without effort, to avoid changing gears, to pull readily out of difiicult spots. All that pertains to luxury of motion depends on a high-speed vibrationless motor. That is what is accomplished in the Super-Six in a degree here- tofore unknown. A block's ride in this car will prove it. S
