  Tatra (car) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tatra immediately started legal action, but the matter was not resolved until 1961 when Volkswagen was ordered to pay 3,000,000 Deutsche Marks in damages.
In fact, the Tatra became known as the 'Czech Secret Weapon' for the scores of officers who died behind the wheel; at one point, it seems, official orders had to be issued forbidding German officers from driving Tatras.
Postwar, Tatras continued to be built; the factory was nationalised in 1946 after the Communist takeover.

In Tatra's case, at least, that impression is very unfair, because up until World War II, the Czechoslovakian company built some of the most advanced and imaginative automobiles of the era.
Tatra's history begins with a wagon maker named Ignaz Schustala, who set up shop in the Moravian town of Nesseldorf in 1850.
Ledwinka's first design for the new Tatra marque was the T11, one of the most technically advanced cars of its day.
