Brennabor Typ E
Encyclopedia
The 2 Litre Brennabor Typ E is a car manufactured, briefly, by Brennabor
in 1933 as a successor to the company’s Typ B “Juwel 6
.
The Typ E was powered by a 6 cylinder 2 litre side-valve engine, mounted ahead of the driver and delivering 38 hp at 3,200 rpm. Power was delivered to the rear wheels through a single plate dry clutch and a four speed gear box controlled using a centrally positioned floor mounted gear stick. A Freewheel
device within the clutch was offered as an option.
The car sat on a U-profile pressed steel chassis with rigid axles and semi-eliptical leaf springing. It was offered only as a four door sedan/saloon. The mechanically linked foot brake operated directly on all four wheels, while the handbrake operated on the rear wheels.
At the same time, the company launched the 2.5 litre Brennabor Typ F. This was similar in most respects, but retained the larger 2460 cm³ engine from the Typ B “Juwel 6
. Thus equipped, the Type F provided 45 hp of output.
1933 was a year of continuing economic difficulty for the German economy and Brennabor entered the year in some difficulty. By the end of the year the company had abandoned automobile production in order to focus on light-weight motor bikes. By the time production was suspended, the combined output of Typ Es and Typ Fs amounted to approximately 200 cars.
