Nash Airflyte

Airflyte was a name Nash Motors used for several of its cars between 1949 and 1955. It began as the label for the full-size cars of 1949 to 1951, which were marked out by an aerodynamic, rounded shape and included the Nash 600, renamed the Statesman in 1950, and the Nash Ambassador. From 1950 to 1955 the name also covered the compact Nash Rambler. From 1952 to 1954 the restyled full-size cars were first called the Golden Airflytes, in honor of the fiftieth anniversary of Nash Motors in 1952, and they took a more squared-off look than the earlier cars, with larger wheel cutouts in the front fenders. During the same years the company also distributed the Nash Airflyte Magazine to owners of Nash cars, with features on lifestyles, experiences and travels as well as on the vehicles they drove.
