This was an impressive performance at the time. The car also had an advanced three-speed transmission with an optional overdrive, which improved fuel efficiency and driving comfort. The interior of the Packard Eight de Luxe was luxurious and comfortable, seating six. The car also had a number of advanced features and controls such as a built-in heater, clock, ashtray and cigar lighter, radio and optional air conditioning. The Packard Eight de Luxe was a very popular car and was considered one of the best cars Packard ever produced.
