Mercedes-Benz 170SV (1938 to 1939)

The Mercedes-Benz 170SV was a limited production model built by Mercedes-Benz between 1938 and 1939. A cross country roadster, the 170 SV acheived success in certain motorsports events, but the car was never available to the public as it was a Third Reich project to develop a capable offroad car. The 170SV was built on the same chassis (W149) as the Mercedes-Benz 200V.
