"Presenting a New Kind of Car" Sales Brochure for the 1953 Hudson Jet
01
Artifact Overview
Hudson produced its Jet model for 1953 and 1954. The compact Jet was a response to Nash's popular Rambler, which suggested an appreciable market in the United States for smaller cars. Development costs strained Hudson's finances, and Jet's sales were lower than anticipated. In a bid for survival, Hudson merged with Nash-Kelvinator to form American Motors Corporation in 1954.
