Testing of the Daimler cross-country passenger car

A Daimler cross-country passenger car with all-wheel drive and all-wheel steering completes a 1,677 km test run from its production plant Berlin-Marienfelde to Untertürkheim and back. In May the vehicle is shipped to Swakopmund in German South West Africa (present-day Namibia), where Bernhard Dernburg, permanent secretary at the Imperial Colonial Office, goes on to clock up many kilometres at the wheel.
