Zündapp Janus microcar(1957 – 1958)

Zündapp Janus was a microcar model made by Zündapp in Germany between 1957 -1958. It was the only car ever made by the company. Originally Zündapp made motorcycles, but in 1954 decided to make a more weatherproof vehicle.

Production started in June 1957. Only 1,731 cars were made in the first six months. By mid-1958, Zündapp abandoned the project and sold the factory to Bosch. A total of 6,902 Zündapp Janus cars were made.
