jr HUDSON New Zealand Assembly of HUDSON-ESSEX brings Sweeping Price Economy AFTER carefully surveying the position in the motor trade The Dominion Motors Ltd. have commenced the assembly of HUDSON-ESSEX cars in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. The important economies effected in production, freight and boxing charges have offset increased import tarus. The saving has been passed on to the public in the form of sweeping reduction of prices of entirely new models in the ESSEX line, and it has been possible, at the same time, to protect the public against an otherwise inevitable rise in the price of the 1927 Hudson Models. The Dominion Motors Ltd., in accordance with their policy, are contenting themselves with a small margin of profit relying upon quick turnover to make the business pay. The success of this plan is well assured because the quality of the Hudson-Essex line has never been more widely recognised, and the Hudson-Essex Models will make a tremendous appeal to every discriminating motorist in the country. .. , I’ """""" a Not only would this have put up costs, How Hudson-Essex Quality nas I p i' .1 M Dotkyzs nf 0 but practice proves that the less a car - been made possible at the Price.
