Everyone always says the Washington is the greatest Station Wagon made. But you always go against the grain. What about a 7456? OK stop laughing. Yes we all know the doors fall off when you open them. So what's the solution to setting the newest trend? Ever thought about a Philadelphia Motors? This month we take a look at the new Washington. Is this the Station Wagon you've been looking for? Find out!


As always, our first stop with the Philadelphia Motors Washington was the track. This Station Wagon may wow some people. It's certainly has better power and performance than most of its peers. The 123 hp @ 5093RPMs 2162 cc Flat4 engine is able to put a healthy amount of rubber on the road. When you do this properly, you're able to propel the Washington to a top speed of 95 mph and drag times of 27.786s 0 to 60 mph are a breeze. With this 102 lb-ft of torque can tow 22 lbs. Once again. Not great, but not bad. Philadelphia Motors really did well with the Washington when it comes to the track. I certainly think this vehicle is better than most in its class. Compared to its peers in the Station Wagon class the Philadelphia Motors Washington selling point should not be driveability. The Washington offers bare bones handling. There is just enough grip in the wheels to keep you from flying off the side of a cliff... But not much. On the track, it is not much better.


Nothing says 'You've Made It' better than owning the Philadelphia Motors Washington. It is a palace on wheels. Comfortable seats, firm leather, and lovely carpeting will make you feel like the King or Queen of the road.

Amazingly spacey the Philadelphia Motors Washington can bost 49 cu-ft interior and cargo space. This vehicle is massive compared to most. It's one of our top choices when it comes to practicality.

The workmanship put into the Philadelphia Motors Washington is unparalleled in this market. From its hand finished panelling to ultrahigh quality materials the Washington is truly a work of art that should last a life time. It seems Philadelphia Motors has perfected the perfect.


Dog is said to be man's best friend. But that saying isn't true anymore. I propose the Philadelphia Motors Washington is truly man's best friend. Not once in our long term testing did it need repair. This vehicle was built to last a life time. It is truly a wonder of the world. Centuries from now people will still probably be driving this thing, that's how rock solid it is.

At the pump station you get the feeling that someone over at Philadelphia Motors really wanted to squeeze out every last drop out of this vehicle. And that person should get a raise. The Philadelphia Motors Washington gets an impressive 34.7 mpg! Which means it theoretically pays for it self compared to the competition!

You could really tell the engineers at Philadelphia Motors designed the Washington to save lives. This vehicle not only reduces the risk of being killed in it, but reduces the risk of being killed from it. This vehicle should be looked at as a marvel of preventative engineering.


When it comes down to it, the Philadelphia Motors Washington is one of the best Station Wagon on the market. For almost everyone on the looking for a Station Wagon, you won't find a much better vehicle than the Washington. It testing team was astonished by the results. We give it our total and complete recommendation.
