The Cord 810 (and related Cord 812) was an automobile produced by the Cord Automobile division of Auburn Motors in 1936 and 1937. It was the first American-designed and built front wheel drive car with independent front suspension. It followed the 1934 Citroën Traction Avant and the Cord L-29, both of which also had front wheel drive. The 810/812 was also the first to offer hidden headlights.
