Wartburg 353: A Piece of East German Automotive History The Wartburg 353 was a popular East German car produced between 1966 and 1991 by the VEB Automobilwerk Eisenach. It was a successor to the Wartburg 311 and was known for its distinctive two-stroke engine, boxy design, and durability. Key Features and Characteristics: Two-stroke engine: The Wartburg 353 was powered by a three-cylinder, two-stroke engine, which was a common feature in East German cars of that era. This engine provided a unique driving experience but also required a specific mixture of oil and fuel. Boxy design: The car's design was quite functional, with a boxy shape that maximized interior space. Durability: Wartburgs were known for their durability and ability to withstand harsh conditions. Affordable: As a product of a planned economy, the Wartburg 353 was priced to be affordable for the average East German citizen. The Wartburg 353 was produced in East Germany during the Cold War. 1 It was a symbol of the country's automotive industry and was widely used by both private individuals and state-owned enterprises. Due to limited access to Western technology and materials, the Wartburg 353 retained a somewhat outdated design compared to its Western counterparts. Decline and Discontinuation After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the Wartburg 353 could no longer compete with the more modern and fuel-efficient Western cars that flooded the East German market. Production ceased in 1991, marking the end of an era for East German automotive manufacturing. Legacy Despite its relatively short production run and limited technological advancements, the Wartburg 353 has gained a cult following among car enthusiasts. It is often seen as a nostalgic symbol of East Germany and its unique automotive culture. Engine: Type: Three-cylinder, two-stroke Displacement: 992 cc Power: 37 hp (27 kW) Torque: 7.2 kgf·m (70.6 N·m) Transmission: Type: 4-speed manual Suspension: Front: Independent, coil springs, wishbones Rear: Rigid axle, leaf springs Brakes: Front: Drum brakes Rear: Drum brakes Dimensions: Length: 3,930 mm (154.7 in) Width: 1,560 mm (61.4 in) Height: 1,400 mm in (55.1 mm) Wheelbase: 2,40 mm (95.7 in) Performance: Top speed: 115 km/h (71 mph) Acceleration 0-100 km/h: 28 seconds Fuel consumption: Approximately 7.5 liters/100 km (37.7 mpg) In 1984 a deal was reached in which IFA would assembles Volkswagen's 1.3-liter EA111 engine under license, in the Barkas plant in Karl-Marx-Stadt (Chemnitz).[2] The engine was too long to be mounted longitudinally in the Wartburg 353, and too long to fit between the front wheels in a transverse installation. One prototype with the longitudinal engine was built, nicknamed Nasenbär (Coati) because of its long nose. Wartburg chose the transverse option, and thus the Wartburg 1.3 only entered production in October 1988 as a new transmission also had to be developed, as well as an entirely new front end (everything ahead of the A-pillar was new). The track was widened by 10 cm (3.9 in) in front and by 6 cm (2.4 in) in the rear, necessitating small fender extensions. The new drivetrain also meant that the gear shifter migrated to the floor, instead of on the column where it was usually found on Wartburgs. The considerable changes meant that the development costs far outreached the projected expense of manufacturing the four-stroke 1600 cc engine developed by Wartburg's own engineers in the early seventies.
