This is the Schakomobil prototype,  built in Germany by Schako, a manufacturer of ventliation systems.

Are you sure that's Schako, not Schuco? ;D

I'm fairly sure it's Schako, they are still in business, their web site is at www.schako.com although it doesn't mention anything about the Schakomobil.

Sorry that's a rather weak joke (Grobmotorix would understand!)  see here:

Oh, amazing!

I´ve never heard of a Schakomobil before.

The coat of arms is of Meßkirch/Baden Württhemberg near Lake Constance as I know now...

Thank you very much for posting this one!
