he Heritage of
lldsmobile
Engineering with a purpose. It’s at
ne heart
of every Oldsmobile. Your new
Ildsmobile continues a 97-year tradition
f engineering excellence.
That tradition was born in Lansing,
Iichigan, on August
2 I, 1897, when
:ansom
E. Olds began building a
.orseless carriage “in as nearly a perfect
lanner as possible.” Soon, Oldsmobiles
olled off the nation’s first assembly line.
Innovation and refinement have
lways set Oldsmobiles apart. In 1939,
Ildsmobile introduced the celebrated
[ydra-Matic transmission, a four-speed
Irerunner
of today’s advanced systems.
I 1948, the high-spirited Rocket V8
ngine set standards for performance.

A Step Ahead
!

In 1966, Toronado made front-wheel-
drive news, including Motor Trend’s
“Car of the Year.’’ Still breaking new
ground, the 1974
“Toro” became the first
car equipped with
a production “air bag.”
Recent Oldsmobile engineerhg
has
created exciting advancements like
the responsive Quad
4 engine. Versions of
the 4-cylinder, 16-valve Quad 4 propelled
Oldsmobiles on roads and racetracks to
new standards
of economy and
performance. Today, the all-wheel-drive security
of SmartTrak in the Oldsmobile Bravada
continues that proud tradition
of
rneaningfid technology.
