The BMW 600 microcar was shown at the 1957 Frankfurt motor
show. The 600 was powered by a four stroke, 2 cylinder
585 cc engine developing 19 horsepower at 4000 rpm. This
motor gave the BMW 600 a top speed of 62 mph through a
4 speed manual gearbox.
The BMW 600 sold well in America where it was fitted with
sealed beam headlights and larger bumpers to conform to
safety regulations. The BMW 600 also sold well in Argentina. |
