Review written on 8/1964.
Philadelphia Motors just released a new Van called the Adirondack. We've been waiting to see this vehicle in person. And now that we have, we can make our opinions known. Is it truly better than the class leader? The Alpine. Or is even the lowly Entrance better than it? Read to find out more!

On first glance the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack seems to have everything you'd want in a daily driver on the track. It is not overly powerful, but it packs enough punch to get up and go. While you won't win any races, you won't hold up any traffic. The Van's 214 hp @ 4999RPMs 4976 cc V4 engine does well enough under load to keep you satisfied. The Adirondack is able to top out at 88 mph and accelerates at 14.208s 0 to 60 mph. Hooked up to our test trailer, the 180 lb-ft of torque were able to tow 3648 lbs. Ultimately the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack is your average Van on the track. The Philadelphia Motors Adirondack handles smoothly and can really turn a corner for a Van. While it is certainly not a race car, it can handle any real world situation you throw at it.

When we got to interior testing on the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack we found it to be below average. While you wouldn't want to use this vehicle on a road trip, it is comfortable enough for short rides and tiny commutes.

The Philadelphia Motors Adirondack is one of the most spacious vehicles in its class. With 124 cu-ft of cargo and passenger room you should never have any issues with transportation. Even if you have to move an elephant...

The manufacturing process of Philadelphia Motors has really found something. The Adirondack seems like a hand built car through and through. The workmanship is amazing. Only fine artisans could produce something like this.

If there was one vehicle I believe would be able to hit 1,000,000 miles easily it would be the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack. This vehicle was designed for dependability in mind.

The Philadelphia Motors Adirondack gets 8.8 mpg. So get friendly with your local fuel station attendant. You'll be seeing him often.

While the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack is certainly impressive in term of safety, it's not overly designed in this fashion in a way that would imped its enjoyment. Never the less this vehicle is more than safe enough for even the most uptight and poor drivers among us.

I was happy with the time I spent in the Philadelphia Motors Adirondack. This car is truly magnificent. I think future generations will look back at this vehicle and think, "I wish I owned one of these." It is absolutely one of the best Van you can buy. An instant classic that others in the segment will be compared to. I wish I could spend more time with the Adirondack but it is time for them to take it away. I believe I might go buy one myself.
