Under Loutzky Brand Name

Cars under Loutzky brandmark were constructed by the Russian engineer Boris Grigoryevich Loutzky. In 1897 he set up “Gesellschaft fuer Automobilwagenbau System Loutzky” automotive company in Berlin. His first cars were shown off at the Berlin Motor Show in 1899. These were light-duty vehicles with an engine under a driver seat. Loutzky engines had a mechanical drive of both exhaust and admission valves. Due to the fact a 0.62lit. 2 engines 5,5bhp was 50 percent more powerful compared to other analogues. The engines had a spherical combustion chamber and a two spark ignition.
Historians differ in their opinions according Loutzky activity: he’s considered a German engineer for one hand and his activity is depreciated in “Motorfahrzeuge und Motorenfabrik Berlin” for another. “Motorfahrzeuge und Motorenfabrik Berlin” had manufactured “Daimler- Marienfelde” and is regarded as one of the oldest Mercedes-Benz branch available. However that’s “Mercedes-Benz” historians who have left Loutzky out. Although that’s an undeniable fact the cars assembled by “Lessner” under “Mercedes-Benz” license in 1904 had a double brand name “Daimler- Loutzky”.
