No, it was just a model that didn't make it into full-scale production.

I believe it is the Austro Daimler ADS "Sascha" 5/15 PS from 1922. Designed by Ferdinand Porsche with input from Graf Alexander Kolowrat. 3 prototypes were built

Title: Re: Wendax 278
Post by: Wendax on August 12, 2011, 03:44:17 PM

Yes, it is a Sascha-based prototype for a small 15 hp Austro-Daimler tourer, developped by Ferdinand Porsche. It didn't make it into production as the management thought it was too small.

Another point for you.
