A Swastika is seen on
A Swastika is seen on the tail of a BMW powered plane. Which lets us know how interwoven the Nazis were with industry. Aviation got BMW off the ground but the company was looking to automobiles for more growth. Their first cars were derived from the Austin 7 and known as the Dixi. It wasn't until the 1932 that BMW launched its first original car.
Their new car model, the 3/20 PS was a 782 cc 4 cylinder powered car and the first one independently produced by BMW. Shortly after the waves of acclaim generated by the new machine, the company announces its next model, the 303 saloon, that would bring a persistent trait in all future BMW engine configurations: the 6 cylinder one.
Only years after the launch of the 303 in 1933, BMW continued its world record breaking streak, at the same time with the beginning of a new chapter in its cylinder-powered existence: the development of the company's first roadster, the 328 model (1936), and a row of motor sport wins over the following two years.
