Revell 1/18 Wartburg 313 Sportco (08839)
After the great successes of the Wartburg 311, in 1957 the Eisenach Motor Works (AWE)
brought out the beautiful 313 sports car. This stylish car offered very well-balanced
proportions, the lines of which excited the trade press both at home and abroad. The fine
mesh radiator grille that also went onto the later Wartburg models, added the finishing
touch to this luxurious sports car, which boasted a top speed of 140 kph. Like its
predecessor, the 313 had a 900 cc, three-cylinder, two-stroke engine, but its twin
carburettors gave it a capacity of 50 bhp. Other familiar features from the 311 were the
torsion resistant box section frame, the suspension and the shock absorbers. The bodywork
originated from the Zwickau body works (KWZ), but the final assembly of the 313 was done in
Eisenach. The interior of the sports car, which could bear comparison with western
products, had comfortable leather seats, a handsome dashboard and equipment that could
hardly be bettered by other European manufacturers.
