The Tatra V570 was a prototype early 1930s car developed by a team led by Hans Ledwinka and Paul Jaray. The second V570 was built in 1933, two years before the first Volkswagen, which bears a strong resemblance to the Tatra Ã¢â¬â it was misappropriated in the opinion of Tatra, by Adolf Hitler and Dr. Ferdinand Porsche in circumstances about which the German company remains intensely sensitive. Serial production was considered, however the Tatra 57's outstanding commercial success precluded it, the principles of V570 were later used in the Tatra T77 and Tatra T97 designs.
