The Hupmobile Model R was a vehicle produced by the Hupp Motor Company. It is the 18th car introduced by Hupmobile and marks the company's return from luxury cars to entry-level cars. The car would be a short-wheelbase version of the Model N, being Template:Cvt shorter, and only for the 1924 and 1925 model Year being available with the main Inline 8 engine.[1][2][3][4]

Generation History

The original car would have 3 generations. The first, and original Model R would be called as the "14/15 HP" generation, being sold with Touring and Phaeton bodies. The second and third Model R would be would not have unique generational names, but would vary from the 14/15 greatly. The second generation would have a up-stroked engine, from a 3.0L up to 3.2L, and the car would be slightly larger than the 14/15 HP, the car would be available with a unique for the time Liftback 2 door, and new for Hupmobile Sedan, Coupe, and Convertible variations.

Skylark

The later and final Hupmobile Skylark was often called "Model R" because the internal code for it was Model R. The Skylark was conceived as a last-ditch effort by Hupmobile as their sales crumbled with the beginning of World War II. The Body was a facelifted version of the Cord 810/812, designed by John Tjaarda, who was also contracted to design the engines and running gear. Hupmobiles lack of resources would bring them to contract Graham-Paige to build the bodies. The car would have 2,158 built, with 319 built by Hupmobile, and 1,859 by Graham-Paige.[5][6]
