Opel 1.2 litre
The Opel 1.2-litre is a small car manufactured by Opel between 1931 and 1935. The 1.2-litre was replaced in 1935 by the Opel P4 which was broadly similar but employed a new engine and continued in production till December 1937. For just one year, in 1933, the manufacturer also offered the Opel 1.0-litre which was an Opel 1.2-litre with a smaller engine.〔Oswald, pp 314 - 319〕 The Opel 1.2 litre replaced the last version of the Opel Laubfrosch and was itself first complemented and then effectively replaced by the more roomy Opel Kadett which had itself already entered production in 1935.
Opel was Germany’s top auto-producer throughout the 1930s.〔Oswald, p 531〕 Between 1932 and 1936 this model was the manufacturer’s top seller.
==Origins==
The Opel 1.2-litre entered production in July 1931. Conceptually and technically it closely resembled the Opel 1.8-litre which had been launched six months earlier, the two models even sharing identical cylinder dimensions. However, the 1.8 engine included six cylinders where as the 1.2 came with only four. Control over Opel had been purchased by General Motors in 1928 and the 1.2 model was developed in America, with the need for efficient inexpensive production built into the development process. The wheelbase would be considered a little short for this class of car, but there would be no arguing with the aggressive pricing strategy that Opel were able to pursue with the 1.2-litre.〔Oswald, pp 314〕
