The Glas GT could have given the English sports cars a run for their money. However, it was almost too well and too luxuriously equipped for that and correspondingly expensive. In terms of handling and, above all, driving pleasure, however, it was in no way inferior to the British. The sedan was completely different: more powerful and more comfortable, it was more of a fast highway car than a cornering predator. This historical test report shows very well how different two cars with basically the same engine can be.
The abbreviation "TS" stands for "Touring Sport", i.e. for a car suitable for both touring and racing. With the Glas 1700 TS, however, the emphasis was clearly on the first half of the word. Its elastic engine and comfortable chassis made it an excellent fast touring car. High revs and tight bends, on the other hand, were less its métier. Nevertheless, this historical test report was impressed by the 100 hp saloon.
