It was an experimental automobile whose shape resembled that of a Zeppelin airship. It was designed and developed by the German aeronautical engineer Franz Kruckenberg in 1929.

The propulsion was carried out by a propeller located at the rear, capable of accelerating the car to 230.2 km/h (143 mph), setting the railway speed record for a vehicle powered by a gasoline engine.

It was equipped with a BMW VI V12 aero engine of 608 hp, highly valued by the Soviets and Japanese, who used it in their civilian aircraft and their wartime biplane fighters.

The body was made of aluminum and had 40 seats. Only one unit was built, which due to safety problems remained out of service and was finally dismantled in 1939.
