Born and Bred in Austria
First produced in 1941, the Steyr Type 1500A/01 was a light truck design
used to carry military personnel.
It was chosen to be one of the vehicles to be produced under the Schell
Plan, which sought to standardize German vehicle production to increase
efficiency.
The Steyr was powered by an air-cooled 8-cylinder engine with 85hp, and
could carry up to 8 passengers.
With its rugged suspension and 4WD, the truck had excellent off-road
capabilities and could also travel at up to 100km/h on-road.
A total of 12,450 were produced until 1944 and served on every front
that the German army fought in. |
