Opel Olympia

Automobiles

The Opel Olympia is a compact car by German automaker Opel, then part of G.M., from 1935 to 1940, and after World War II continued from 1947 to 1953. It was one of the world's first mass-produced cars with a unitary body structure, after the 1934 Citroen Traction Avant, and it was a mass-production success, made in six-figure numbers. Opel achieved this even before the war, while Germany promised a Volkswagen that did not materialize until 1946. From 1967 to 1970 the Olympia badge was briefly reused on a later car.
