Born and Bred in Austria. First produced in 1941, the Steyr Type 1500A/01 was a light truck design used to carry military personnel. It was chosen to be one of the vehicles to be produced under the Schell Plan, which sought to standardise German vehicle production to increase efficiency. The Steyr was powered by an air-cooled 8-cylinder engine with 85hp, and could carry up to 8 passengers. With its rugged suspension and 4WD, the truck had excellent off-road capabilities and could also travel at up to 100km/h on-road. A total of 12,450 were produced until 1944 and served on every front that the German army fought in.

The model realistically reproduces the large size hull that could transport eight fully equipped soldiers and the distinctive form of the engine hood.

Nylon mesh to depict the grille parts is also included with the kit.

The cargo cover is depicted in a folded state and you can choose whether to depict the spare tyre exposed or enclosed within the hull.
