BMW 600 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1957–1959) — First Generation
The BMW 600 combines motorcycle heritage with a compact, space-efficient body. If you appreciate unusual small cars, its design offers an interesting look at how simple engineering can serve everyday practicality.
The BMW 600 engine sits at the rear, helping leave room for passengers within its small footprint. In the 0.6 MT example, a gasoline engine drives the rear wheels through a manual transmission, giving you direct control over gear selection as speed and road conditions change.
