I wonder what's hidden under those strange rear wheels...external drum brakes?

Electric motors in the wheel hubs?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #4 on:** January 28, 2013, 12:39:28 PM »

To my best knowledge it´s been a hybrid car, built most likely after Lohner patents.

So it´s covers for electric motors in the rear whel hubs, that were driven by a petrol engine in the front of the car, that drove a generator.

Electricity involved suggests Siemens?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #6 on:** January 29, 2013, 12:28:45 PM »

It is quite likely, that Siemens may have provided some vital electric components for this vehicle.

But Siemens is not the company I´m looking for, here.

None of the makes mentioned before.

It came from a bigger town in the south eastern half of Germany.
