1954 Nash Metropolitan

Automobiles

The first Metropolitans were badged as Nash and went on sale on March 19, 1954 in the United States and Canada, after the name had been changed from NKI Custom just two months before the public release. When Nash merged with Hudson in May 1954, the car also became available through Hudson dealers from August 1954 with a Hudson grille badge. Sales in the first month were 862 and about seven thousand in the first six months. The car was priced near 1,445 dollars for the hardtop.
