This item is limited to 3 per household.
Only 333 pieces are to be manufactured.

-In 1933, DKW contacted aerodynamics expert Paul Jalai and asked him to design a new type of UW streamlined body to be presented at the 1933 Berlin Motor Show.
-Jalai was very loyal to the principle and placed great importance on sophisticated designs with low windage.
-The striking feature of this design is the rounded teardrop-shaped passenger compartment with attached small tail fins.
-The special shape that Jaray filed for a patent on September 8, 1921 and finally patented in 1926 was also a hallmark of Jalai's design. And he has continued to improve it for many years.

-In 1933 he reached the best concept ever. It gives the type UW the aerodynamically perfected function of minimizing turbulence due to the fine structure of the body that causes drag.
-Compared to the general UW, Jalai's design was too futuristic, which was probably the biggest problem.
-Given that typical car designs at the time used exterior mudguards, plush upright radiator grills, stand-alone front lights, exterior bumpers, and spacious boots, the Jarai design It seems to have deviated from those worlds, and that's also why it didn't suit buyers' tastes.
-Worse, the Type UW has been positioned as a mid-range vehicle, and customers in this class are often conservative.

-But, after all, these are all beyond speculation. It's unclear if Audi considered putting the Jalai design into production.
