The Leichter Panzerspähwagen were a series
of light four-wheel drive armoured cars produced by Nazi Germany from 1935 to
1944.
It used the
standard sPkw I Horch 801 chassis with an angled armoured body and turret.
The rear mounted
engine was a 67 kW (90 hp) Horch 3.5 petrol engine, giving it a road speed
of 80 km/h and a cross-country speed of 40 km/h . It had a maximum
range of 300 km.
Used by the
reconnaissance battalions (Aufklärungs-Abteilung) of the Panzer
divisions, the type performed well enough in countries with good road networks,
like those in Western Europe. However, on the Eastern Front and North Africa,
this class of vehicle was hampered by its relatively poor off-road performance.
In those theaters, it gradually found itself replaced in the reconnaissance
role by the Sdkfz 250 half-track.
