Packard Light Eight (1932 to 1932)

Packard introduced the Light Eight for the 1932 model year. The Light Eight was a series of entry level priced luxury cars meant to make the Packard brand more accessible during the great depression. This new model was powered by a 5.2L inline eight engine, and available in four body styles: sedan, stationary coupe, roadster coupe, and sedan coupe. The Light Eight was not a huge success, and ended up being a negative move for Packard, so the company discontinued the model after just one year.
