A new model was announced in 1925 as a replacement for the V8; this had an OHC straight-six engine of, again, around 4.5 liters. Like its predecessor, this new Wills Sainte Claire was capable of reaching around 75 mph, despite a weight of 30 cwt, even in two-seater form, and several record cross-country runs were recorded, culminating in a coast-to coast dash from New York to San Francisco in 83 hours 12 minutes in 1926. But the change of model failed to avert the inevitable, and the Wills Sainte Claire was just too good for the market: maintenance was difficult and expensive, for few mechanics understood how to repair such a car.
