The Porsche Type 64 is also known as Type 60 K 10 or Berlin-Rome-Wagen. The sportscar was designed by Ferdinand Porsche and built in 1939 for the purpose of driving a long-distance rally from Berlin to Rome.
The car's shape was inspired by the KdF/Beetle model but with extreme aerondynamics. The driver and passenger seats were placed behind, not next to each other, and the wheel housings were entirely closed to improve the airrflow. Its theoretical top speed was 190 km/h thanks to these innovative aerodynamics.
As the Second World War broke out in 1939, the Type 64 was never used for its initial purpose. Only three units of the car were made and two were damaged in the subsequent years, so only one car actually survived to the present day. The vehicle was driven in the early 1950s in motorsports races by the Austrian Otto Mathé and is today a collectors item.
