Trabant
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
The Trabant (or Trabi) was a series of cars built in the German Democratic Republic. When the first cars were released, people saw them as being full of innovations. The cars were also easy on fuel, they did not need much fuel. Unfortunately, the company who built the car did not innovate, so soon, the cars were showing the age of the technolgy that was used. At least they were robust.
Between 1957 and 1990, about 3 million "Trabant" were built. As of January 2005, about 67.000 such cars were still registered.
