1963 Studebaker Avanti R2: A Bold American Design Icon

The 1963 Studebaker Avanti R2 was one of the most daring and innovative American cars of its era. Designed by Raymond Loewy’s team, the Avanti stunned the automotive world with its sleek, aerodynamic fiberglass body, sharply raked windshield, and futuristic styling that looked years ahead of its time.

Powered by a supercharged 289 cubic-inch V8 engine producing 335 horsepower, the R2 version delivered impressive performance for a grand tourer, capable of reaching 0–60 mph in under 7 seconds. Featuring advanced engineering such as front disc brakes and an aircraft-inspired cockpit, the Avanti R2 combined high style with genuine speed.
