The AWZ P70 "Zwickau" was a car made in East Germany by VEB Automobilwerk Zwickau (AWZ) between 1956 and 1959. After 1958 AWZ was united with the former Horch factory to the VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau and called Sachsenring P70.
It succeeded the IFA F8 using the same 684 cc two cylinder, two-stroke engine but with a completely new glass fibre body. An estate version was introduced in 1956 followed by a coupé in 1957.
It was replaced by the Trabant P50 in 1959 after about 36,000 had been made.
