Just a scale model. I'm not absolutely sure about the designer and the actual name of the proposal, but there are some strong hints.

For one point, please respond and identify this proposal and its designer.

No, Günter Mittag was the Secretary for the Economy in Eastern Germany.

I see you modified your question. Besides from the rule not to ask multiple questions, I can tell you that it was not Hans Fleischer either. Hans Fleischer was responsible for the Wartburg design.

And I did a little more research and I think this model, which I found pictured without a proper name, is not really the Trabant 610, but a very closely related design with a name of its own. But it was done by the same designer as the 610.

Karl Clauss Dietel?
It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

Yes, the design was done by Karl Clauss Dietel. Locked for you to find the correct designation of this car, as it is not the 610.

No, it's not a word, but a technical name.
