Trabant

Trabant was an East German car brand that was manufactured from 1957 to 1990 by the former VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau. It was the most common vehicle in East Germany and was known for its affordability and low-quality build. The two-stroke engine and simple body design made the Trabant lightweight, fuel efficient, and relatively inexpensive to buy and maintain. Its iconic design featured a boxy shape, a plastic body, and a small hood-mounted engine. The car was often referred to as the "Trabbi" or "Trabi". It was the last car to be produced in East Germany before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Despite its poor build quality, the car was popular among East Germans due to its affordability.

The Trabant was a car brand manufactured in East Germany by VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau. It was produced from 1957 to 1991 when the Berlin Wall fell and the country was reunified. The Trabant was the most common vehicle in East Germany and was known as a "people's car," since it was seen as accessible to the average East German citizen. The Trabant was powered by a two-cylinder, two-stroke engine, and featured a fiberglass body. The car could reach a top speed of about 75 mph and had an average fuel economy of about 30 mpg. It was also noted for its durability and simplicity, making it a popular choice among East German citizens. The Trabant was eventually replaced by more modern vehicles when East Germany was reunified.
