1952 NSU Sidecar 501 Konsul II
NSU Werke (Neckarsulmer Motorenwerke) активно участвует в создании и производстве двухколесных транспортных средств, а также в его линейке были мотоциклы с коляской.
Для семей это было новое измерение свободы, автомобили были тогда еще довольно дороги.
Родители на "мотоцикле", дети в коляске - так путешествовали в 60-х годах .
The company NSU began motorcycle production in 1901, four years before it started producing automobiles. The company prospered thanks to the motorcycle manufacturing and despite the fact that air strikes and bomb attacks during World War II destroyed its factories, the company NSU became the world largest motorcycle manufacturer by the mid-1950s.
Rumours are in the air that the name " Konsul " was chosen for this bike, because it included the letters "NSU". The employed advertising slogan is "a wise head buys the Konsul." This bike is often used with a side-car.
In the early 1950s the NSU worried that a micro-auto might change a motorcycle. Thus, they introduced their own micro-automobile in 1958. The NSU also released their first commercial car with Wankel engine.
