The NSU-Pipe 15/24 PS was an upper middle class car that Neckarsulmer Fahrradwerke Aktiengesellschaft built from 1906 to 1910 under license from the Belgian car manufacturer Pipe . The 15/24 PS was the successor to the 34 PS model .

The water-cooled engine was a four-cylinder block engine with a displacement of 3768 cm³ (bore × stroke = 100 × 120 mm), which made 24 hp (17.6 kW). The engine had double ignition ( magnet and battery ), automatic central lubrication and overhead valves . The engine power was transmitted to the rear wheels via a leather cone clutch, a four-speed gearbox with a right-hand gate shift and a chain . The wheelbase of the cars was 3000–3200 mm, their track width 1450 mm and the weight of the double phaeton was 1650 kg. The top speed was around 70 km / h.

The cars were manufactured as a double phaeton , roi-des-belges , landaulet or limousine . In 1910 their production was stopped in favor of smaller cars of their own design without a successor.
