Coches DKW: libros - historia y modelos (2/2)

DKW Typenkunde - Nachkriegsfahrzeuge und ausländische Lizenzmodelle

After the production facilities in Saxony of what was once Germany's second-largest automobile manufacturer were lost at the end of the war, Auto Union AG was deleted from the commercial register in 1948 - the name DKW disappeared. In 1949, however, Auto Union GmbH was founded and the production of motor vehicles under the name DKW was resumed.
Production of the DKW F 89 L fast truck and the DKW RT 125 W, the most successful German motorcycle, began in Ingolstadt. Production of the DKW F 89 P Meisterklasse with its uniquely curved body began in Düsseldorf in April 1950.

Auto Union GmbH flourished again, belonged to Daimler-Benz AG from 1958 and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagenwerk AG between 1964 and 1966. At the beginning of 1966, the production of DKW passenger car models ended in Germany; the DKW Munga was the last DKW model to be built for the German Army until December 1968.

This richly illustrated DKW Type Guide Classic presents all DKW post-war vehicles with technical information and production data. A special feature are the independent models of the foreign DKW licensees in Brazil, Argentina and Slovenia. Information is provided about them that has not been presented in this way before.

Audi 1910-2000 - Auto Union, DKW, Horch, Wanderer

Audi AG looks back on a varied and eventful history, with a tradition stretching back to the 19th century. In the course of the first wave of concentration in automobile manufacturing, Audi merged with Horch, DKW and Wanderer to form Auto Union AG in 1932. The four intertwined rings of the Audi logo are still reminiscent of the founding brands today.

Today, Audi is one of the major German premium brands alongside Mercedes-Benz and BMW. Werner Oswald traces the history of this rise and the models with which Auto Union and its heirs achieved this feat in this volume.

Kenner fahren DKW ! Prototypen, Weltrekordler, Seltenheiten

The DKW vehicles with two-stroke engines, bicycles with auxiliary engines, motorcycles and cars were designed in the first half of the 20th century as a low-cost alternative for everyday use.
DKW vehicles were the result of the struggle and search of technicians, designers and test drivers. The end result was reliable vehicles with a sophisticated design that were effectively produced in large series by hard-working workers.

The sophisticated mass-produced models were only possible because their designers tried out all ideas, even those that proved to be unviable in production or use. The models that were created in this way - prototypes, one-offs, rarities - are the focus of this book.
At the same time, Frieder Bach uses this book to create a monument to the people who were involved in the development of the DKW.
