Wartburg is a family of passenger cars produced between 1955 and 1991 by the VEB Automobilwerk Eisenach factory in DDR. The 353 was produced between 1966 and 1989. This was an upgraded version of the already used 312 model. The chassis remained virtually unchanged. The new body work was given modern edgy shapes in accordance with the then-reigning fashion. The car had a fairly spacious interior and was powered by a two-stroke engine. The Wartburg 353 was produced in the Sedan and Kombi version.
