Heinkel Typ 154

1956 – 1958 · GERMANY

The Heinkel Kabine, a microcar originally designed by Heinkel Flugzeugwerke, was produced between 1956 and 1958 before production was moved to the Dundalk Engineering Company in Ireland under license. However, due to issues related to poor quality control, the license was revoked shortly after production began in Ireland. Despite this setback, production of the Heinkel Kabine resumed in 1960 under the name Trojan 200 by Trojan Cars Ltd. in the UK. This manufacturing arrangement continued until 1966. The Heinkel Kabine was a distinctive microcar that garnered attention for its unique design and compact size. Its transfer to different production facilities reflected the challenges faced by the original designers in maintaining quality control and consistent production standards
