History

The Steyr 120 Super took the six-cylinder engine of the Steyr 430 and fitted it to the light Steyr 100 body. Its stroke was shortened from 70 mm to 68.5 mm, giving 1976 cc. It was offered as a four-door saloon, a two-door cabriolet and a chassis for special bodies. The source gives 50 PS at 3700 rpm and a top speed of 120 km/h.

The Steyr 120 and 125 together reached 1200 cars in all variants.
