Metropolis cars, nipped in the bud. In the film by Fritz Lang the last two Tropfenwagen

In the famous film Metropolis by Fritz Lang, set in a very distant 2026, we witness the destruction of two Pullman versions of the Rumpler A4. A two-fold message: one that tells how different and innovative the cars of the future will be and the other, rather heart-breaking considering the effort Edmund Rumpler put into creating them, the imminent failure of the Tropfenwagen project. After the first Torpedo proposal, the series production model arrived in 1921, with the name Type OA 104.
