1967 NSU 1200 TT Navigation
The NSU 1200 was powered by a four-cylinder 71.8 cubic-inch engine that produced 69 horsepower. The horsepower was later increased to 73. It had similar dimensions as the 110 and rode on a 96-inch wheelbase.During the 1950s, the NSU company tried its luck in the automotive market, something they had done from 1906 through the mid-1920s. The first offering was the Prinz, powered by a two-cylinder engine. There were various versions of the Prinz, with the final version being the Prinz IV. It proved to be very popular, with over 500,000 produced. The engine was improved to produce a respectable 30 horsepower, and the top speed was around 115 kph. The larger version of the Prinz was the NSU 1000TT powered by a four-cylinder transverse engine that sat behind the rear axle. Due to its excellent weight distribution and performance characteristics, it became very popular with racers. The 1200TT had a larger engine which improved the car's overall top speed. However, many favored the 1000TTS due to its ability to race in the 1-liter class.
