FactGerman soldiers nicknamed the Hanomag 2/10 PS 'Kommissbrot' because its rounded body looked like the army's standard-issue loaf.
The Hanomag 2/10 PS, nicknamed "Kommissbrot" ("Army Bread") for its resemblance to the standard-issue German army loaf, was built from 1924 to 1928 as one of the first cars with fully integrated envelope styling — its 503 cc water-cooled single-cylinder engine sat behind the passengers, driving a chain-driven rear axle with no differential. Rated "two taxable / ten brake horsepower" under Germany's contemporary fiscal-horsepower naming convention, it achieved 71 mpg (Imperial), making it the most fuel-efficient mass-production car of the interwar period thanks to its low-friction single-cylinder engine and light weight. Rear-mid-engine, 3-speed manual; wheelbase 1,920 mm, length 2,780 mm, width 1,180 mm, height 1,600 mm, kerb weight 370 kg (816 lb). The page never states a drivetrain layout in the literal words this catalogue's registry check requires (only the "RMR" infobox code and "chain-driven" rear axle), and gives no imperial pairing for wheelbase/length/width, so those fields are left unset here.

The Celica XX, Japan's name for the A60 Supra, introduced the world's first in-car navigation computer.
The CTR Anniversary looks like a 911 but Ruf built its carbon monocoque from scratch, no Porsche body underneath.
The 228's coupe styling hides a sedan underneath: Maserati stretched it onto the longer four-door Biturbo chassis to make room for its biggest V6, which is literally where the name comes from — 2-door, 2.8 litre.
Switching to fuel injection let this V8 finally shed its trademark bonnet bulge — and only 405 of these flat-hooded Series 5 cars were built before the whole model retired in 1989.
Japanese buyers got a secret weapon in their MX-6 — the JDM-only KL-ZE V6 made about 40 more horsepower than the engine sold in the exact same car in North America.
An American tuner, Callaway Cars, built twin-turbo conversions of the GTV6 that boosted its V6 by fifty percent to 230 hp — turning Alfa's grand tourer into something far quicker than the factory ever intended.
