Opel 24/50 PS

The Opel 24/50 PS was a upper-class car that Adam Opel KG built from 1910 to the end of 1912 as the successor of the 25/40 PS. Its cooling water was moved by a centrifugal pump. Its four-cylinder side-valve block engine with a 115 mm bore and 150 mm stroke displaced 6,232 cc and produced 50 PS (37 kW) at 1,400 rpm. Power passed through a leather cone clutch, a manual 4-speed gearbox and a propeller shaft to the rear axle, and the car reached a top speed of 85 km/h. It was offered as a four-seat double phaeton, a four-door Pullman saloon or a landaulet, with a four-door torpedo added in early 1912. The double phaeton, the cheapest body, cost 13,000 reichsmarks. It was built until the end of 1912 and then replaced by the 25/55 PS.
