The Hudson Jet is a compact-sized automobile produced by the Hudson Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan, during the 1953 and 1954 model years. The Jet was the automaker's response to the popular Nash Rambler.
The costs of developing and marketing the Jet, along with the fierce competition from the domestic "Big Three" automakers, ultimately led to Hudson's merger with Nash to establish the American Motors Corporation in 1954.[3]
