Description

The Heinkel Kabine 200 Typ 154 was a microcar produced by Heinkel in the late 1950s. It was a four-wheeled version of the Heinkel Kabine series, which was known for its compact, economical design. Unlike earlier three-wheeled models, the Typ 154 had a more conventional four-wheel configuration, improving its stability and handling.

This model was powered by a 198 cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, which produced around 10 horsepower, offering similar performance to the other Kabine variants. It could reach a top speed of approximately 90 km/h (56 mph). Like the rest of the Kabine range, the Typ 154 featured a rear-mounted engine and a front-opening door for easy access to the interior, which could seat two adults.

The Heinkel Kabine 200 Typ 154 was appreciated for its practicality, fuel efficiency, and ease of maintenance, making it an affordable option for drivers seeking a compact city car. Its rarity today makes it a sought-after collectible among microcar enthusiasts.
