1950 Studebaker Champion Deluxe Studebakers Best Year Ever The critics and comedians had a field day making jokes about the new design of the 1950 Studebaker. With its bullet-nose front, vertical fender-mounted taillights and wrap-around rear window, this Raymond Loewy/Virgil Exner design did look like its front and rear ends may have been switched. But the public knew which way to go. 1950 was Studebakers best sales year ever, with over 320,000 cars sold. For the first time, their slogan that “Its 4 cars not 3 that lead the lowest price field proved true.
