Hupmobile
Now Europe claims half of all the cars we can build for 1914
When we designed the Hupmobile we made it essentially an American car, for use under American conditions.
But Europe thinks the American Hup-mobile such a good car, and so well suited to European requirements, that it stands ready to absorb half of the coming year\'s output of 1914 cars.
Can you imagine a tribute higher than this; or a more positive confirmation of our belief that the Hupmobile is the best car of its class in the world?
The Briton, the Frenchman, the German, pays $200 to $400 more for his Hupmobile than you do because he recognizes its high quality and its operating economy.
Likewise the Hupmobile buyers of South Africa, Australasia and New Zealand, where the Hupmobile has overcome an anti-American prejudice even stronger than that which exists in the European countries.
And in the Philippines thousands of miles from home the Hupmobile is as truly the car of the American family as here, as shown by the dom-ination of its name on the registry lists.
Thus the belief that the Hupmobile is the best car of its class in the world rolls on to practically every section of the globe where automobiles are used.

William Cameron Forbes, who served as Governor-General until October 1913, was famously associated with the Hupmobile. He frequently used a Hupmobile to navigate and inspect the construction of the Baguio Road (Kennon Road), often driving the vehicle himself.]
