Almost 34 horse-power trom tins reg
ular stock Maxwell engine!
34 actual, brake horse-power!
Proved by an accurate dynamometer
test, made in the Maxwell laboratories
August 10, 1916.
There has been a lot of talk about
horse-power, and we just want to let
Maxwell owners and prospective owners
know that in respect to horse-power, as
in most other respects, the Maxwell
leads by a comfortable margin. Not
that we attach such great importance to
horse-power. We don’t We never have.
Horse-power — abundant horse-power
—is only one of many superior features
of the Maxwell.
We are selling motor cars—complete
motor cars—not engines or horse power.
Korse-power is a matter that is second
ary to motor efficiency and economy.
A giant has no advantage if he does not
appiy, or wrongly applies, nis strengta*
Maxwell cars have horse-power—all
you want or need —probably more per
pound of car weight than any other
automobile in the world.
But we don’t make any loud cry
about it.
Because we have more than horse
power to sell you.
Because you are, and should be, inter
ested in results, the net effectiveness of
power.
We challenge competitive tests. We
invite comparison.
Because we absolutely know that no
car of its class or weight can surpass
the Maxwell on speedways, on rough
roads, through sand or mud, anywhere.
And because we know, and you will
know, that, everything considered, the
Maxwell is the World's Greatest Motor
Car Value!
