Den Horch-produserte Kfz.15 ble mye brukt av tyske styrker under andre verdenskrig. Et allsidig 4WD-kjøretøy, dets veldesignede chassis hadde 4-hjuls uavhengig fjæring, og den kunne bære maksimalt 4 passasjerer i hastigheter på opptil 90 km/t takket være den 85 hk 8-sylindrede motoren. I en unik designvri ble reservedekkene holdt på siden av bilen og var i stand til å rotere i lagringsposisjonen, og ga en hjelpende hånd hvis Kfz.15 skulle møte ulendt terreng. Produksjonen gikk fra 1937 til 1943, og Kfz.15 kunne sees i bruk på en rekke steder: Vestfronten, Balkan, Nord-Afrika og Østfronten. Den kanskje mest betydningsfulle handlingen var i Rommels Afrika Korps, som satte det solide og kvikke kjøretøyet til omfattende bruk i deres utmattelseskamp med britiske styrker.

A Trusty Servant The Horch-manufactured Kfz.15 was widely used by German forces during WWII. A versatile 4WD vehicle, its well-designed chassis featured 4-wheel independent suspension, and it could carry a maximum of 4 passengers at speeds of up to 90km/h thanks to the 85hp 8-cylinder engine. In a unique design twist, its spare tires were kept on the side of the car and were able to rotate in their storage position, lending a hand should the Kfz.15 encounter rough terrain. Its production ran from 1937 to 1943, and the Kfz.15 could be seen in service in a range of locations: the Western Front, the Balkans, North Africa, and the Eastern Front. Perhaps its most significant action was in the hands of Rommel’s Afrika Korps, which put the sturdy and nimble vehicle to extensive use in their battle of attrition with British forces. |
