Audi Type T

The Audi Type T - or Audi Dresden - is a passenger car of the upper middle class with six-cylinder engine, which brought out the Audi works in Zwickau in 1931 as a smaller version of the 1929 presented eight-cylinder type SS.

The Model T was the second new Audi cars after the takeover of the plant by the Zschopauer Motor Works JS Rasmussen AG ( DKW ). The vehicle has installed a side-valve engine with 3.8 liter displacement front. It develops 75 hp at 3000 min-1 and drives a four-speed transmission with shift lever in the center of the car the rear wheels. The engines were US-based constructions and Scharfstein were produced at the DKW - branch plant where Zschopauer Motor Works had set up with the bought machines of the former U.S. company Rickenbacker Motor Company, a new production. The car has two leaf-sprung rigid axles and hydraulically actuated four-wheel brakes. It was offered as a four-door sedan or two-door convertible.

By 1932 only 76 cars were made because the units for his performance was too expensive and unreliable and was therefore difficult to sell.
