1962 | IWL SR 59 Berlin

For sale is an IWL Berlin SR 59 from 1962, one of the final production years of this model. Manufactured at the state-owned Industriewerke Ludwigsfelde, the SR 59 is considered one of the most iconic scooters produced in the former GDR. It was designed to provide dependable and practical transportation for everyday urban use at a time when affordable motorized mobility was in high demand.

Produced between 1959 and 1962, the SR 59 became one of the most successful scooters of its era, with over 100,000 units built. Because many were used for decades as daily transport, well-preserved and fully functional examples are increasingly hard to find today.
