Home›Automobiles›Year›By Year›1955Browse By1955This dimension groups vehicles by the year they were introduced. Some years mark a genuine turning point, such as when "the Ford Motor Company further revolutionized automobile production by developing and selling its Ford Model T at a relatively modest price," as Wikipedia records of 1908. Browsing by year places a vehicle in the wider timeline of transport history.Facts1955ConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1886 1Typical Passenger CapacityWell-attested4 1Typical Passenger CapacityWell-attested5 11955Filter Results136 entriesVehicle TypeAllConvertibles and Roadsters (4)Coupes (2)Hatchbacks And Microcars (2)Luxury Cars (8)Off-Road And 4x4 Vehicles (1)Pickup Trucks (3)Sedans (13)Sports And Performance Cars (7)Sports And Performance Cars Before 1980 (7)Station Wagons (5)SUVs And Crossovers (1)Vans and Cargo Vans (1)ManufacturerAllAbarth (1)American Motors Corporation (10)Austin Motor Company (2)BMW Group (3)British Motor Corporation (3)Cadillac (1)Chrysler Corporation (24)Citroen (1)Daimler-Benz (1)Fiat Automobiles (2)Ford Motor Company (37)Ford of Britain (1)General Motors (8)Jaguar Cars (1)Kaiser Jeep (4)Lancia (2)Maserati (4)Mercedes-Benz Group AG (1)Morris Motors (2)Nissan Motor Company (3)Riley Motor (2)Rolls-Royce Limited (5)Rover Company (2)Saab AB (2)Saab-Scania (1)Standard Motor Company (6)Toyota (5)Volkswagen Group (1)Willys (1)Wolseley Motors (1)MakeAllAustin (2)BMW (3)Buick (1)Cadillac (1)Chevrolet (8)Chrysler (7)Citroen (1)Datsun (2)DeSoto (5)Dodge (7)Fiat (3)Ford (26)Hudson (4)Imperial (3)Jaguar Cars (1)Jeep (5)Lancia (2)Land Rover (1)Lincoln (5)Maserati (4)Mercedes-Benz (2)Mercury (7)MG (1)Morris (4)Nash (3)Nissan (1)Plymouth (2)Pontiac (2)Riley (2)Rolls-Royce (5)Rover (1)Saab (2)Standard Motor Company (2)Toyota (5)Triumph (4)Volkswagen (1)Wolseley (1)ModelAllAustin Cambridge (1)Austin Westminster (1)BMW 501 and 502 (1)Buick Century (1)Chevrolet Bel Air (2)Chevrolet Corvette (1)Chevrolet Suburban (2)Chrysler 300 letter series (2)Chrysler New Yorker (2)Datsun Truck (1)DeSoto Firedome (2)DeSoto Fireflite (2)Dodge Coronet (2)Dodge Lancer (2)Ford Anglia (1)Ford Consul (1)Ford Country Sedan (1)Ford Country Squire (2)Ford Courier (1)Ford Crown Victoria (1)Ford Customline (2)Ford F-Series (1)Ford Fairlane (Americas) (2)Ford Mainline (1)Ford Popular (1)Ford Prefect (1)Ford Taunus (1)Ford Thunderbird (2)Ford Zephyr (1)Fordson E83W (1)Hudson Hornet (2)Hudson Wasp (2)Imperial (1955 to 1983) (2)Jeep CJ-5 (2)Land Rover Series (1)Lincoln Capri (1952) (1)Lincoln Custom (2)Mercury Custom (1)Mercury M-Series (1)Mercury Montclair (2)Mercury Monterey (2)Morris Cowley (1)Morris Isis (2)Morris Oxford (1)Nash Ambassador (1)Nash Metropolitan (1)Nash Statesman (1)Plymouth Belvedere (1)Plymouth Savoy (1)Riley Pathfinder (1)Riley RM (1)Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud (2)Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn (1)Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith (1)Rover P4 (1)Standard Vanguard (1)Toyota Crown (2)Toyota Land Cruiser (2)Triumph TR2 (1)Triumph TR3 (2)Wolseley 6/90 (1)Country of OriginAllCanada (1)Germany (3)Italy (9)Japan (4)Sweden (2)United Kingdom (8)United States (8)Body StyleAllCity car (1)Convertible (14)Coupe (19)Limousine (1)Off-road vehicle (1)Pickup Truck (5)Racing car (5)Roadster (7)Sedan (58)Station Wagon (16)SUV or Crossover (2)Van or Kei Truck (2)PropulsionAllDiesel (2)Electric (1)Petrol (3)Engine ClassAllPiston (19)StatusAllOne-off concept (6)Out of production (26)Surviving (2)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 36Jeep CJ-51955Jeep CJ-5 (Willys and Kaiser era)1955Jeep CJ-61955Jeep DJ1955Lancia Aurelia B24 Spider1955Lancia Florida1955Lincoln Custom (1955)1955Lincoln Futura1955Lincoln Indianapolis1955Maserati 150S1955Maserati 200S1955Maserati 300S1955Maserati 350S1955Mercedes-Benz 190 SL1955Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR1955Mercury Montclair1955Mercury Montclair (first generation)1955Mercury Monterey (1955 to 1956)1955MG MGA1955Morris Isis (Series I)1955Nissan Bluebird1955Pontiac Laurentian1955Pontiac Safari1955Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud1955Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud (Silver Cloud)1955Saab 931955Saab Sonett1955Standard Companion1955Standard Vanguard Phase III1955Toyota Crown1955Toyota Crown (first generation, RS to S30)1955Toyota Land Cruiser (20 series, J20)1955Tri-Five1955Triumph TR31955Triumph TR3 (TR3)1955Volkswagen Karmann Ghia1955Showing 101 to 136 of 136, page 3 of 3.← Previous123ConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 2,565 connections.Sources1.
