Is it perhaps an Arimofa, from 1919?

From memory I'd say no, but do have to confirm when I'm home again.

You've had your chance, folks, while I was having a nice easter meal.  ;D
There ain't no puzzle too easy for me, especially when we are having so many skilled experts.

This is Hans Keitel with his 1921 KAHA electric car.

Astonishing as usual...I had some other names in my list, but not Kaha, a name I had never heard before: have you any notices about?

Hans Keitel was an aircraft engineer at Dornier who had to look for a new task after WW1. He developed two cars, this little electric single-seater which was built 1921/22, first as the Kaha, later on as the Omnobil, and an aerodynamically shaped car, the Keitel Luftstromwagen which remained a prototype.

Correct of course. As Wendax has the same book I knew it was only a matter of time.
