A borrowed engine of a Junek motorcycle was used for power with a maximum performance of just 15 hp. The motor was mounted in the rear of the small vehicle with a length of just under 3 meters. The maximum speed was closely 80 km/h and was only possible because the Smyk only weighed 470 kg. The complete car body was produced of plastic and thus made the low weight possible.
But all of this did not help - and the unusual entrance by the very strange design of the front door was primarily responsible for the Smyk not entering series production. In the end - only 20 prototypes were built.
Diecast models are manufactured to various scales based on measurements taken from the actual vehicles. The rule to remember is the higher the scale number, the smaller the model!
So, 1:2 scale quite ltierally means it is 1/2 (half) the size and 1:4 scale means it is 1/4 (quarter) the size. Here is a rough guide to the size of our models although this will vary depending on the size of the actual vehicle. Please note that the scale and size of models differs per department. Please refer to the individual product page to find out the estimated size of the actual model you would like to purchase.
