The Audi Type T - or Audi Dresden - is a car of the upper middle class with six-cylinder engine , which the Audi works as a smaller version of the 1929 eight-cylinder presented in Zwickau 1931 type SS brought out.
The Type T was the second new Audi car after the factory was taken over by Zschopauer Motorenwerke JS Rasmussen AG ( DKW ). The vehicle has a side-controlled in- line engine with 3.8 liters displacement at the front. He developed 75 hp at 3000 min -1 and drives, via a four-speed gearbox with gear lever in the middle of the vehicle the rear wheels. The engines were American designs and were manufactured in the DKW branch in Scharfenstein , where Zschopauer Motorenwerke had set up a new production facility with machines from the former US company Rickenbacker Motor Company . The car has two leaf-sprung rigid axles and hydraulically operated four-wheel brakes. It was offered as a four-door sedan or a two-door convertible.
Only 76 vehicles were produced up to 1932, as the car was too expensive for its performance and also unreliable and was therefore difficult to sell.
