The front wheels were driven via a four-speed manual gear box with a free wheel. The engine was water-cooled, the radiator being located behind the engine, an unusual configuration but one also found on the DKW F91. The F9 featured a three-cylinder two-stroke water-cooled engine of 910 cc with a claimed output, at launch, of 28 bhp (21 kW). The car was accordingly usefully lighter than its western built Auto Union equivalent. Steel for consumer industries was in short supply across many parts of Europe during this period, and the F9’s body construction increasingly involved plastic panels, especially after production was moved to Eisenach in 1953. Surviving F9s appear largely restricted to saloon versions, but various sports and cabriolet versions were also produced. Materials shortages probably delayed introduction in both German states, but the eastern car beat the western to the market, and certainly featured the three-cylinder motor from the 1938 F9 prototype (rather than the two-cylinder motor that had been in serial production in 1942) at least three years before Auto Union in Düsseldorf were installing it in their F91. After the war, the first car assembled at Zwickau was the prewar DKW F8, but the more modern F9 started to appear in 1949 or 1950 (sources differ). The body closely followed the design of the DKW F9, a prototype with which Auto Union would have replaced the F8 on the Zwickau production lines earlier, had the war not intervened. Mechanically the F9 derived from the DKW F8 which had been available between 19. Trucks produced by it 'Phenomenon of Granite', and a little later - lightweight military vehicles with.
The world-famous brand IFA once belonged to several companies that manufacture cars on German companies that were part of the IFA industry association, which existed from 1947 beginning the company gained notoriety in the military autostructure.
