History[]
Cyklonetka was designed by a team of brothers: Eugeniusz, Jan, and Wacław Knawow in their workshop in Kielce, Poland. All elements of the car, but the engine, were manufactured by brothers themselves in their workshop. The engine was manufactured in the factory in Warsaw. In summer 1939, the brothers had traveled with their construction, equipped with the bike registration plate, to Warsaw, where they met with Antoni Roman, the , who was impressed with their construction, and commented that the vehicle should have car registration plate instead. Soon after that, Nazi Germany had invaded Poland, beginning the World War II, which made it impossible for the future development of the car.[1][2]
