The Daimler DZVR 21 was a light, armored German vehicle. It was developed in 1919 and 1920. A total of 85 units were built between 1921 and 1925, only one of which is left in Germany. This is exhibited in the Munster tank museum. The vehicles were used as so-called special vehicles for the protection and order police of the German federal states. One copy was with the regulatory police of the Free State of Oldenburg ; it was never used and in 1939 it was given to SA Standard 91 for scrapping.
