During the 1960s and into the early 70s, the rotary engine invented by Felix Wankel and developed by the German automaker NSU has been the auto industry's darling, with no self-respecting automaker wanting to risk being left behind.
Made of fewer moving parts, compact yet powerful, high-revving yet free of vibrations, the Wankel rotary engine held great promise compared to period automobile powerplants, and the long list of companies that bought a Wankel license from NSU includes Alfa Romeo.
