Description
The 880 kg Volkhart V2 Sagitta has a lightweight aluminium body on a tubular steel lattice frame. The name "Sagitta" comes from the Latin for arrow. At the rear is a 1. 1-litre Volkhart boxer engine with 24. 5 hp. Thanks to the aerodynamic shape, which is reminiscent of the Porsche 356, 150 km/ h is possible. With the help of glued-on woollen threads, the flow could be visualised on the bodywork. Price on request.

Volkhart was the world's first rocket pilot and was already considered a pioneer of space travel in 1928. In 1944, the V2 Sagitta was made from sheet metal from decommissioned aeroplanes. Despite modest resources, this design achieved a cd value of 0. 165 determined by roll-out tests - good production cars today achieve cd values of 0. 3.
