"Developed in 1934, the Kfz. 15 was built by the Horch company to fill the German military's medium personnel carrier role.
In an effort to increase production, the vehicle was also manufactured by Wanderer and Opel.
Universally known as the Horch, the Kfz. 15 was an all wheel drive vehicle capable of carrying 4 soldiers, as well as towing light artillery. Its primary use was as a Staff Car for officers. Powered by an 8OHP V8 engine, the Horch was well recieved by commanders who used it to travel throughout the battlefield.
From its initial production in 1937, until the final vehicles rolled off the line in 1940, over 12000 units were produced."
