Background information
The BMW Isetta, affectionately known as the Knutschkugel, revolutionized the German automobile market in 1955. As the first mass-produced economy car, it helped many people achieve motorized mobility. The small car originally developed by the Italian company Iso was licensed and further developed by BMW. With its characteristic front entrance, economical single-cylinder engine and affordable price, the Isetta quickly became a symbol of the German economic miracle. Between 1955 and 1962 over 160,000 examples were produced, which have now become sought-after collector's items.
