14. Duesenberg
Duesenberg built its reputation on ultra-luxurious, powerful cars that became the ultimate status symbol in the 1920s and ’30s.
The phrase “It’s a Duesy!” lives on as a testament to their excellence.
However, the Great Depression struck hard, ending production abruptly in 1937.
Though short-lived, Duesenberg’s glamour and engineering set new standards in the world of luxury automobiles.
