Також такі труби почали встановлювати на авто моделі SJ з атмосферними моторами. Реклама говорила: «Єдиний автомобіль, який міг обігнати Duesenberg був інший Duesenberg і то за згодою його власника». У 1930-х рр. Duesenberg став любимим авто гангстерів (зокрема Аль Капоне) завдяки швидкості і можливості встановити захист з металічних листів.
The straight eight model J motor was based on the company’s successful #racing #engines of the 1920s and though designed by Duesenberg they were manufactured by Lycoming, another company owned by Cord. In normally aspirated form, it produced 265 horsepower (198 kW) from dual overhead #camshafts and four #valves per #cylinder. It was capable of a top #speed of 119 mph (192 km/h), and 94 mph (151 km/h) in 2nd #gear. Other cars featured a bigger engine but none of them surpassed its power. It was also both the fastest and most expensive American automobile on the #market.
The #Duesenberg #Model #J is a #luxury #automobile made by Duesenberg. Intended to compete with the most luxurious and #powerful cars in the world, it was introduced in 1928, the year before the stock market crash that led to the Great Depression. The Model J, available with a supercharger after 1932, was sold until 1937.
