History
NSU Sport Prinz
NSU commissioned Italian design house Bertone to create an attractive coupe body for their Prinz platform, resulting in the Sport Prinz launched in 1958. The elegant two-seater featured a 598cc air-cooled twin-cylinder engine mounted in the rear, producing 30 hp in standard form. Despite modest power, the 580 kg curb weight and balanced chassis made it a capable handler on winding roads. The Sport Prinz's timeless styling and quality construction earned it a loyal following, with approximately 20,000 units produced during its nine-year production run before NSU shifted focus to rotary engine development.
