As for the chassis, the frame was reinforced to lower the floor while improving rigidity and ride comfort through improved leaf springs and adoption of front shock absorbers. Although the engine output nominally improved only one hp, the adoption of thermostat and many other improvements made the engine more durable and serviceable. The external styling was modernized by embedding the headlamps in the fenders. The front grille design featured six horizontal slits arranged in two columns, possibly inspired by the 1948 Studebaker.
