What's this car, from when - for 1 point?

Google Image Search continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Image Search as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

unnamed polish prototype
do You need any more info?

EDIT:
in some sources it is called "Popularny" (popular) and it was made by Cezary Nawrot in 1957
it was only mock-up in 1:5 scale

That's enough!
It was described as "FSO Samochod Popularny" where I found it; was there any FSO involvement then and what does 'Samochod' mean?

Cezary Nawrot worked for FSO so I think this model was made there.
