Summary

Description
English: Test drive on the highway
  • During 1939, the Schlörwagen was put through its paces in a series of tests conducted on the recently completed highway near Göttingen, the forerunner of today’s A7. The production car on which it was based, a Mercedes 170 H, achieved a maximum speed of around 105 kilometres per hour, while the aerodynamic version recorded a remarkable 134 to 136 kilometres per hour. The Schlörwagen consumed eight litres of fuel to drive 100 kilometres, while the production car used 10 to 12 litres – equivalent to a reduction of between roughly 20 and 35 percent.
Deutsch: Testfahrt auf der Autobahn
  • Auf der damals bei Göttingen gerade fertig gestellten Autobahn, dem Vorläufer der heutigen A 7, absolvierte der Schlörwagen im Jahr 1939 eine Reihe von Testfahrten. Die Höchstgeschwindigkeit betrug beim Serienwagen circa 105 Kilometer pro Stunde, beim Stromlinienwagen beachtliche 134 bis 136. Der Schlörwagen verbrauchte auf 100 Kilometer acht Liter, das Serienmodell hingegen zehn bis zwölf Liter - eine Reduzierung um 20 bis 40 Prozent
