The Tatra design principle


"Where others start today, Tatra has stood for 10 years!"

This 1931 flyer by Detra of Frankfurt on Main (German Tatra concessionary) provides a high-level schematic of the main design features of Tatra trucks and personal vehicles - the sturdy central chassis tube and driven, swing half axles. This design principle is still applied to Tatra trucks built today.
"Tatra six-wheeled vehicle 8-10 tons payload. Commercial vehicles of all types and sizes.

Tatra has been building automobiles since 1896 - standard equipment includes swing axles and tubular chassis since 1921. The new Tatra passenger truck types are the result of groundbreaking design innovations, unrivaled in driving characteristics, reliability, driving safety and performance, and far superior in economy and transport capacity."
