Wankel *******? 
Cool historical find!
This looks to be published in the development period leading up to NSU putting Wankel engines into production cars, when they were still full of hope about them. Kind of a tragic footnote then that the Wankel engine essentially killed NSU.
Then to bring this full circle, as most know our 924/944 family were assembled in the old NSU-turned-Audi plant in Neckarsulm. Kind of like moving into a house somebody was murdered in, lol. Fortunately any lingering bad juju appears to have evaporated in the years prior to the 924s.
