The Brennabor jewel 8 3.5 liters is a passenger car of the upper class which the Brennabor-Werke 1930 in addition to the smaller model jewel 6 brought out.

The vehicle had an 8-cylinder SV in-line engine with 3.4 liters displacement at the front. It developed 60 hp at 3200 rpm. It drove the rear wheels via a single-disc dry clutch and a 3-speed gearbox with a gearshift lever in the middle of the car. The cars with a U-profile pressed steel frame had rigid axles with semi-elliptical longitudinal leaf springs (on the rear axle in an underslung version) and were available as a 4-door sedan with 4 seats or a 4-door Pullman sedan with 6 seats. The mechanical foot brake worked on all 4 wheels, the hand brake on the rear wheels.

A total of around 100 Juwel 8s were made by 1932.
