1955 Studebaker Commander
Sleek, sporty, and low slung, the 1955 Studebaker Commander model definitely stood apart from the competition. Take one look at it, then remember this is 1955!
The Studebaker Commander was legitimately able to claim a “European” look. But don’t be fooled. The Commander did not compromise on power, either.
It featured a 259ci V8 “Bearcat” engine and 3-speed automatic transmission producing 162 hp.
Despite the Commander losing its status as Studebaker’s top model in 1955, replaced by the President, it remains a favorite of collectors who dare to be different.
