Originally founded in 1846 in the city of Hanover, Hanomag produced a large variety of vehicles over the years, including railway engines, farm tractors, construction equipment and trucks, all of which were of more importance than the passenger cars. The most famous Hanomag passenger car was the small 2/10 PS nicknamed "Kommissbrot", made from 1924 to 1928. Other popular models followed, but after WW II the decision was made not to continue passenger car production, although a promising prototype called Partner was developed almost to production maturity in 1951. The other branches continued, but during the 1960s the company was split into several parts which were then sold on to various other companies. The truck division was merged with Henschel and then swallowed by Daimler-Benz. The Hanomag name survives to this day only on construction equipment, produced by what is now a subsidiary of Komatsu. Not surprisingly, the only Hanomag passenger car of which small-scale models can be found is the 2/10 PS. Several variations are handmade of pewter and brass in H0 scale by the German company Saller of Kaufbeuren. |
