Having ceased motorcycle production in 1933, New Hudson returned briefly to the manufacture of two-wheelers in 1940 with the Autocycle. The engine was Villiers' JDL and the Autocycle featured pedal transmission and a rigid front fork. Production resumed in 1946, by which time New Hudson was owned by BSA. Post-war developments included the adoption of pressed-steel, blade-type girder forks in 1948 and the Villiers 2F engine, necessitating major frame changes, the following year. The 2F remained when the Autocycle was revamped with a new 'easy access' open frame and tubular girder fork in May 1956. Deletion of the 2F brought an end to Autocycle production in 1958.
