Overview
Manufacturer
Hansa-Lloyd and Goliath-Werke Borgward & Tecklenburg
The Goliath Atlas also sold as Hansa-Lloyd Atlas[2] is an cab over truck that was produced from 1932 to 1935 in Bremen, Germany. It was not the first, but an early one ton freight trucks of the German Goliath Company and it got a closed driver cab. Its top speed was 64 km/h (40 mph). It was an improvement of the 1929 Goliath Express, transporting 0.8 metric tons (0.88 short tons) and up to 50 km/h (31 mph), and its predecessor 1926 Goliath K1, transporting 0.5 metric tons (0.55 short tons), both with open cab.[3]
As later microcars like the Isetta or the Zündapp Janus, it had a front door only, to enter the cab. A fixed steering column and a door hinge on the left, required the passenger to exit first.
