Lloyd car, manufactured in Bremen, Germany

Mar. 22 Cheaper than the People's Car: A German baby car for £300 to compete in the world markets With British car manufacturers fighting to sell small, cheap to run cars in the export markets, the German Lloyd car is proving to be an even greater competitor than the famous Volkswagen or People's Car, first thought of by Hitler. The Lloyd, made in Bremen, has a motor of 400 cubic centimeters capacity, and sells for 3, 500 Marks at the works. Manufacture is by a conveyor-belt system, but a high production standard is maintained by the 2, 000 workers employed. The car reaches a top speed of 50 mph and compares very favourably with the more expensive Volkswagen and British baby cars in every other way. Making a Rival to the Volkswagen Fitting the windows is one of the last stages of the bodywork of the Lloyd baby car
