The third generation introduced Hudson's trademarked Monobuilt construction, a semi unit body inside a perimeter frame so that passengers stepped down into the car, giving a low center of gravity, good handling and slab sided styling that is often called one of the great postwar designs. Designers included Frank Spring and Betty Thatcher. It was available with a six or an eight and was built to the end of 1952. Its model years run from 1948 to 1952.
