January 2007 will mark the return of the legendary Duesenberg brand in the United States, with the launch of a new four-seater called the Torpedo Coupe. The company says the automobile will be built around “revolutionary new power plant” known as the CEM. The engine is air-cooled and self lubricating, forced-air inducted (supercharged), 12 cylinder, double ended, ported, multi-fueled, four-stroke engine with a calculated 70 MPG and 300 horsepower from an economical 100 pound package measuring 18 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length. Duesenberg last made cars in 1937. At the time, its vehicles were among the fastest on the road. The Leftlane Perspective: If Duesenberg can return from a 70 year hiatus and build one of the most revolutionary cars on the road, it will be a proud day for America’s auto industry.
