VW Kübelwagen Typ 82

Der VW Kübelwagen Typ 82 war in den Jahren 1940-1945 das meistgebaute Fahrzeug seiner Art in Deutschland. Von Ferdinand Porsche ab 1938 aus dem zivilen KdF-Wagen entwickelt, geriet der Typ 82 im Zweiten Weltkrieg zum Arbeitspferd an allen Fronten.

Was den VW Kübelwagen auszeichnete, war seine Geländegängigkeit, seine verhältnismässig geringen Entwicklungskosten und seine unproblematische Einsatzfähigkeit selbst unter schwierigen klimatischen Verhältnissen.

Illustriert mit über 200 Bildern, beschreibt die vorliegende Dokumentation von Janusz Piekalkiewicz Entwicklung, Technik und Einsatzgeschichte.
