Despite the common stereotype that the Wehrmacht’s technical equipment at the beginning of the war was at a very high level, in reality the German army was in dire need of modern vehicles, especially trucks. For this reason, the choice fell on the company, located in just annexed Austria – “Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG”. By the fall of 1938 a range of special vehicles for delivery to military units on the territory of Germany had already been identified. At the same time there was a request for a half-ton off-road truck. <\/p>\n\n
Only after the involvement in 1940, the design office of Ferdinand Porsche in a short time the model Porsche Typ.147 was realized, which later was named Steyr 1500A. There was an early model 1500A\/01, which was produced exclusively in Austria, a year later there was an updated model 1500A\/02, which was produced at two other companies in Germany: Wanderer, which was part of the Auto Union in Sigmar and Audi in Zwickau. \nA characteristic feature of the updated model was a spare tire between the side doors. <\/p>\n\n
