The ŠKODA electric truck from the late 1930s

A compact ŠKODA truck used in Plzeň to deliver beer to local restaurants was another attempt at introducing electricity into vehicles. At the end of the 1930s, this vehicle with a payload of between 1.5 and 3 tonnes featured a modern, comfortable and broad cab over the engine, i.e. in front of the front axle, with an aerodynamic front section and an arrowhead-shaped split windscreen.
