Brand Data

Bünger was a Danish automotive project associated with De Forenede Automobilfabrikker, a manufacturing concern based in Odense, Denmark. The venture was the work of engineer Børge Bünger, who developed a three-wheeled "people's car" in collaboration with a coachbuilding firm.

The vehicle featured a conventional-looking front end paired with a sloping coupé-style rear that tapered down to a single rear wheel. Power came from a front-mounted 600cc Ilo two-cylinder engine producing 19 horsepower, giving the small car a claimed top speed of 56 miles per hour (90 km/h). Despite its compact dimensions, the interior was designed to accommodate three occupants, though space was reportedly limited.

Bünger's design never advanced beyond the prototype stage, and no production run followed. As a result, the car remained a footnote in Danish automotive history, representing one of several small-scale attempts in postwar Europe to create an affordable, minimalist form of personal transportation.
