The Schlörwagen

The Schlörwagen was a radical aerodynamic prototype from 1939 developed by Karl Schlör von Westhofen-Dirmstein at the Aerodynamic Research Institute in Göttingen.

The prototype was shown on the International Automobile Exhibition in Berlin in 1939. The car attracted much attention, but car critics derided it as ugly. Although Mercedes-Benz was interested in series production, the design remained in prototype stage due to the outbreak of World War II.

The aerodynamic body fitting seven seats was mounted on the chassis of a rear-engined Mercedes-Benz 170H. Test drives on the Autobahn revealed a superior top speed and fuel economy due to its excellent Cx value of 0.15 to 0.18, a figure unseen in modern cars. However, the car was difficult to drive under crosswind conditions.

During the war, a captured Soviet aircraft engine and propeller was attached to the rear of the vehicle, and test drives were made on the Autobahn near Göttingen.

At the end of the war, the prototype was confiscated by the British occupation authorities, but remained in Göttingen on the premises of the Aerodynamic Research Institute.

Efforts by Karl Schlör von Westhofen-Dirmstein to get the car back from the British occupation authorities failed.

After August 1948, the car – meanwhile damaged by vandalism – was no longer seen in Göttingen. Its whereabouts have been unknown ever since.

Fredrik has fallen asleep at his desk again.

Dell comes into the lab looking for him. He shakes his head and shrugs off his jacket to put on the doctor's shoulders.
