<^l ▼ in iflptoijfistolu m er* HERE at last is a radically new type Straight Eight at Hudson’s wellknown prices; essentially different from conventional “ Straight Eights ” and with finger-tip steering so that a woman can drive it with consummate ease. A car in which the driving sensation is like coasting, and with such brilliance in behaviour as to give complete command of any driving situation. So easy in gear shift that you are into “ top ” in the time it previously took to get away in low gear. Faster than you would ever care to drive, yet strikingly economical. Sponsoring an entirely new vogue in bodywork and with colour motifs smart and absolutely exclusive. Unlike any other car to look at and with new types of advanced coachwork, such as the Great 8 Sunsedan, a convertible 5-passenger car in which the top and upper structure may be folded away to give the sunny freedom of an open phaeton. HUDSON “8 ” CHALLENGER MODELS F. 0.8. MAIN PORTS and a /*JciV ESSEX CHALLENGER Simultaneously with the Hudson Challenger Great “8 ” is announced a New Improved Essex Challenger, developing 60 horse - power from its high compression motor. A faster car, with more power, quicker getaway and smoother performance than even the previous model which made such a favourable impression on the New Zealand public. Distinctly different from all other cars in line and finish, with a wealth of colour and distinction in style motif. Wheelbase is increased from 110 to 113 inches, and two-way hydraulic shock-absorbers have been added, greatly improving riding qualities. The driving position, allied with the extremely light steering, enables the driver to relax' completely. Seats are wider, with greatly increased leg-room. Gears are more easily operated, and the four-wheel brakes are new in type. Light and throttle control are operated on the steering column.
