About this car
The Trabant 601 was East Germany's ubiquitous people's car, powered by a 26 hp two-stroke engine and clad in Duroplast — a cotton-reinforced resin that neither rusted nor could be recycled. Produced for nearly three decades largely unchanged, it became an enduring symbol of Cold War–era East German life.
