The first prototype was presented in 1955 at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt.
The DKW Monza went on sale after its world record runs in 1956. Surprisingly enough, a large number of this small-volume model were exported to the USA, where the lightweight sports coupé with its new plastic body proved to be extremely popular.
Despite a modest 44 horsepower, it’s straight-three, two-stroke engine propelled it to a considerable top speed of 140 kilometres per hour.
