Here each General Motors car must prove its value N a 1245-acre tract near Milford, Michigan, convUiient to all its car and truck divisions, General Motors has the first and largest proving ground for automobiles. Here tests are made and facts determined to a degree impossible when cars and trucks are tested on the public highways. Here each new model of General Motors must prove itself, point by point, before it is produced for sale to the public. More than 135 different tests are applied to each car tested at the Proving Ground. They involve every phase of construction and performance: power, speed, endurance, accelera tion, braking, steering, handling, riding comfort, fuel economy and so on.
