1939

The Pacemaker was introduced in March 1939 and is often considered to be the replacement for the Terraplane.[1] It was built on a 118-inch wheelbase and powered by a 212 cubic inch six cylinder engine.[1] The Pacemaker was not carried over into the 1940 Hudson range.[1]

1950 to 1952

The Pacemaker was again offered for the 1950 through 1952 model years.[2] It was the cheapest model in the Hudson range in each of the three years.[2] The Pacemaker utilised a 119-inch wheelbase, five inches shorter than that used for all other contemporary Hudson models.[2] The Pacemaker had the flathead 232 cubic inch 6-cylinder engine. The Wasp debuted in 1952 with the 262 six, but when the Pacemaker was discontinued, the 1953-54 Wasp base engine became the Pacemaker's 232. The 262-equipped Wasp models were designated Super Wasp.
