After the great successes of the Wartburg 311, in 1957 the Eisenach Motor Works (AWE) brought out the beautiful 313 sports car. This stylish car offered very well-balanced proportions, the lines of which excited the trade press both at home and abroad. The fine mesh radiator grille that also went onto the later Wartburg models, added the finishing touch to this luxurious sports car, which boasted a top speed of 140 kph. Like its predecessor, the 313 had a 900 cc, three-cylinder, two-stroke engine, but its twin carburettors gave it a capacity of 50 bhp. Other familiar features from the 311 were the torsion resistant box section frame, the suspension and the shock absorbers. The interior of the sports car, which could bear comparison with western products, had comfortable leather seats, a handsome dashboard and equipment that could hardly be bettered by other European manufacturers. Die cast details: Engine hood and front doors can be opened; Controllable steering wheel; and Steerable front wheels.
