The NSU 6/14 PS was a lower middle class passenger car that Neckarsulmer Fahrzeugwerke Aktiengesellschaft built from 1909 to 1911. It was the successor to the 6/12 PS and was intended as an inexpensive car for doctors and business people who were on the road a lot.

The water-cooled engine was a four-cylinder block engine with a displacement of 1560 cm³ (bore × stroke = 75 × 88 mm), which made 14 hp (10.3 kW) at 1650 rpm. This engine had a triple-bearing crankshaft, magneto ignition , automatic central lubrication and upright valves in an L-cylinder head. The power was transmitted to the rear wheels via a multi-disc clutch in an oil bath, a three-speed gearbox with a right-hand gate shift and a cardan shaft . The wheelbase of the cars was 2650 mm, their track width was unchanged at 1150 mm and their weight was 1250 kg. The top speed was around 55 km / h.

In 1911 the 6/18 hp replaced this model.
