This looks very much like the german Ostner Rex 4 from the late 1930s.

If it is not the ordinary  version, it might also be a ca. 1940 Talbot Elektro-Lieferwagen "Rex" (4,4-8,8 kW power...),
built by "Richard Talbot Spezialfabrik für Elektrofahrzeuge GmbH", Berlin-Friedrichshafen.
It used the before mentioned Ostner as a basis.

Perfect answer! I hadn't such detailed informations on this car.
"Talbot Elektrowagen" would have made me happy! (or not!  :'( ;))
