 Studebaker Commander - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Studebaker began using the Commander name in the 1920s and continued to use it until the company folded in 1966 with the exception of 1936 and 1959-63.
In 1955 Studebaker reintroduced the President moniker to denote its premium model range and Commander was shifted to mid range model.
In 1963, Studebaker again resurrected the Commander name for the 1964 model year to denote the next to lowest-priced Lark model, the Challenger being on the bottom.
