History
Launched in 1937 and produced through 1940, the Sedina was named after 'Sedina', a feminine personification of the city of Stettin (modern Szczecin). It used a 2,406 cc four-cylinder overhead-valve engine producing 55 PS (40 kW), a six-speed transmission, and rear-wheel drive — a return to more conventional layout after the front-drive experiments of the early 1930s.
The Sedina was offered as a four-door sedan, a four-door Pullman-type sedan, and a two-door convertible. It shared most of its body structure and components with its six-cylinder stablemate, the Arkona, to reduce tooling costs. Total production reached 924 units by 1940, after which the factory shifted entirely to military work.
