Company history

vehicles

The company made three-wheeled vehicles. A single-cylinder engine from DKW was used to drive the individual front wheel. Another source mentions a two-cylinder two - stroke engine with 500 cm³ displacement and 10 HP power from DKW. The majority of the vehicles were bodied as delivery vans. Only a few examples were made as cars.

A four-wheel sports car remained a prototype .

In 1927 the range only consisted of three-wheelers after the four-wheel compact car had not been built since 1926. There was a choice of an open three-seater for 1675 Reichsmarks, an open box van for 250 kg payload for the same price, with a removable box body for 1900 Reichsmarks, a 2/10 HP as an open sports car for 2100 Reichsmarks and 2/10 HP as a coupé for 2450 Reichsmarks.

Remarks

  1. ↑ 1926 does not fit in time. Maybe the older car brand Alfi is meant.
