When the NSU RO 80 was released in 1967, the car was greeted with universal acclaim.

Quote:
The claimed drag coefficient was 0.355, a figure then at least 25 per cent better than achieved by a typical car of the same class.

Initially the demand for the Ro 80 was so high that there was a waiting list...............................
And then, all at once, the whole thing came crashing down.
Simply, the innovative rotary engine proved to have a fearsomely short life.
