The Supreme Car Patentec Hudson December 28, 1915 Patent No, 1165861 With a Patented Motor Which is 80% More Efficient $1375 at Detroit Hudson Super-Six 76 h. p. From a Small, Light Six AVE you any doubt that the Hudson Super.Six is the greatest car ever built? If 0, you should make some tests. Before you buy a car for years to come, these are some claims to settle. THE FASTEST CAR The Super-Six is not built for speed. But speed is one way to prove its efficiency. The Super-Six has made the fastest speed ever made by a touring stock car. MOST POWERFUL The Super-Six is the most powerful motor in the world with like cylinder capacity., A new principle, patented by Hudson, has added 80 per cent to motor efficiency, This size of motor, at its best, used to deliver about 42 horsepower, In the Super-Six it delivers 76 horsepower, No other type - Six, Eight or Twelve - approaches the Super-8ix in efficiency. MOST ENDURING e s This vast reserve power —this add ed B0 per Lont—comes through end ing vibration, In the Super-8ix weo attain utter smoothness, The motor friction, which caused wear, is re duced to almost nothing Engine life is nearly doubled, This saving of friction means other sconomies, The power that was 2 e .

In ordl nary driving the Super-Six is never run at more thao half-load. The motor is never tazed. That means economy in fuel and in wear, BEST PERFORMER The Super-Six will out-perform any other car that's built. It has done what no other car has done, It has climbed hills on high gear which never before have been climbed on high gear, It excels in quick acceleration, Never was a car 80 flex:ble, Never a car with such bird-like motion at high speed. You can prove these facts in 30 minutes by a ride In the Super-Six, THE CAR YOU WANT The Super-Six is the car you want, if you buy a finecar, You don't want less efficiency, less smoothness, less endurance, To buy a car without this motor will surely mean years of regret. Rivals will argue otherwise, But find out for yoursell, The Super.-Six s exclusive to Hudson, so others are bound to question it uper wing 74,07 If you order now you can get & Su per-8ix by the time good roads are ready.
