The Packard Twelve is an American luxury car powered by a V12 engine, produced by the Packard Motor Car Company from 1932 to 1939 as the successor to Packard's earlier Twin Six. Marketed at the height of the Great Depression as one of the most prestigious and expensive American automobiles available, it was aimed at the same wealthy clientele as Cadillac's V16 and Lincoln's K-Series.
