The ad headline explains that "The Remarkable DKW from Dusseldorf...climbs stairs on 3 cylinders and 7 basic moving engine parts".

DKW
1960 DKW - Full color 10" x 13 1/2" ad for "The Remarkable DKW Surefooted as the Cast of the Ice Follies...Designed to go where other cars loose traction". Pictured in the ad is a Light-Colored DKW parked on an icy pavement. Attached to the back are five ropes with about thirty people holding on, preparing to be towed. The engine is very simple, only seven basic moving parts. It has no camshafts, no timing gears and no valves. All it has are three pistons, three connecting rods and a crankshaft. Not bad. The lubrication in a DKW is by oily vapor, oil is mixed with the gas (a two-cycle) and cannot gum up the pistons.

1960 DKW - Black and white 9 3/4" x 13 3/4" ad for the 1960 DKW automobile. The photo in this ad has a picture that shows a DKW being driven up a sandy hill while, on a hill behind the one the car is being driven on, there are a man and a woman walking at a higher angle than the car is going. The ad headline claims that "DKW Does It!" and, below this, it says that "The Remarkable DKW Does Amazing Things On Only Three Cylinders And Looks Great Doing Them!". The four sections in the lower text answers the questions "What Can It Do?", "What Happened To The Rest Of The Cylinders?", "Handsome Is As Handsome Does!" and then "Drive DKW And Decide!".

DKW
1960 DKW-750 - Black and white 10" x 14" ad that has a picture racing a baseball player around the infield. The headline claims that "The remarkable DKW-750 beats Gil McDougald of the New York Yankees around the bases". The first line under the headline asks "How did it do it?". The facts are that the car traveled the bases in 12.0 seconds and Mr. McDougald did it in 13.8 seconds. The next question was "Why does front wheel drive make the DKW such a 'good baserunner'". The front wheel drive enabled the car to be pulled rather than pushed around the bases. "What about acceleration and three cylinders>" They claim that three cylinders can co the work of a six cylinder engine. "Some other interesting facts". The brakes have not been placed ON the wheels but on the axle either side of the transmission. The price for this amazing automobile is only $1665.

They say that outside it's "neat and stylish, complete with whitewall tires". They then say that inside "it has all-vinyl upholstery, bucket seats, nylon carpeting". They say that it has disc brakes and will go from 0-60 in less that 15 seconds.
