Korporacija Studebaker (fonetski:ˈstjuːdəbeɪkər) je bila američka kompanija za proizvodnju teretnih kola i automobila sa sjedištem u South Bendu u Indiani. Osnovana je 1852. a korporacijom postala 1868[1] pod imenom Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company. Ispočetka je proizvodila teretna kola za farmere, rudare i vojsku.
Studebaker je postao dio auto-industrije godine 1902. sa proizvodnjom električnih vozila, da bi 1904. počeo proizvoditi vozila na benzin; sva su se prodavala pod imenom "Studebaker Automobile Company". Sve do 1911. je njen automobilski odjel poslovao u partnerstvu sa E-M-F Company i Garford Company iz grada Elyria. Prva vozila na benzin u potpunosti proizvedene od Studebakera su na tržište izašla u augustu 1912.[2]:p231 Sljedećih 50 godina je kompanija izgradila reputaciju temeljenu na kvaliteti i pouzdanipsti njenih proizvoda[3] Konkurencija Velike trojke iza drugog svjetskog rata se, međutim, pokazala previše jakom; tvornica u South Bendu je s radom prestala 20. decembra 1963, a posljednji Studebaker je proizveden u kanadskom Hamiltonu 16. marta 1966.
