Assar Gabrielsson created a Swedish automotive industry out of nothing. While the Volvo was still an unknown entity in Germany in the mid-fifties, it was already enjoying success after success in its home country. This report shows the perspective of journalist Günther Gebhardt from Hobby on the car, which was still unknown to him at the time.
The Volvo PV 444 was the first newly designed post-war vehicle in Europe. It was presented as early as 1944, but was not built in large numbers until 1947, although it was successful and, together with its successor, remained so for around 20 years. The "humpback Volvo" was even convincing in racing, and on the road anyway. This report describes the history of the Volvo PV 444 and shows it in current and many historical pictures, as well as in half a dozen sales brochures.
