The Tatra 57 has 1 generation in this catalogue. Restyling is not listed as a separate generation.

1 generation (1932-01-01 – 1949-12-31)

1 generation of the Tatra 57 ran from 1932-01-01 to 1949-12-31. The body is Sedan 2-doors. This generation has 1 version: 1.2 MT. The version years match the generation years: 1932-01-01 to 1949-12-31. There is no second generation, no extra body type, and no restyling row in the data.

Tatra 57 specs and engine

The only engine and drivetrain combination in the data is 1.2 MT.

1.2 MT1813not measured1155Gasoline4Opposite2NoManual4RWD

1.2 MT is Gasoline, not another fuel type. Power is 18 hp, which is 13 kW in the same row. Power rpm is not measured. Torque in Nm is not measured. Torque rpm is not measured. Displacement is 1155. Cylinder count is 4. Cylinder layout is Opposite. Valves per cylinder is 2. Boost is No. Induction is Carburetor. Engine location is not measured. Compression ratio is not measured. Bore and stroke are not measured. Fuel grade is not measured. The gearbox is Manual with 4 gears. Drive is RWD.

Front suspension on 1.2 MT is Dependent, leaf spring. Rear suspension is not measured. Front brakes are Drum. Rear brakes are Drum.

Tatra 57 performance, mpg, and economy

For 1.2 MT, 0–100 is not measured. Top speed is not measured. City fuel consumption is not measured. Highway fuel consumption is not measured. Combined fuel consumption is not measured. Tank volume is not measured. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured.

Because those figures are not measured, this catalogue does not assign a 0–100 time, a top speed, an mpg figure, or a tank size to the Tatra 57 1.2 MT. A missing value here means the parameter was not recorded in the source, not that the car cannot have that parameter in use.

Tatra 57 dimensions, weight, and clearance

Kerb weight of 1.2 MT is not measured. Gross weight is not measured. Ground clearance is not measured. Wheel sizes are not measured. Tank volume is not measured (repeated here because tank size is often read with dimensions).

The recorded chassis items that sit next to dimensions in a catalogue card are: front suspension Dependent, leaf spring; rear suspension not measured; front brakes Drum; rear brakes Drum. Body type remains Sedan 2-doors for the whole 1 generation run.

Tatra 57 reliability and problems

This data set does not list reliability scores, common problems, recall counts, or owner-reported faults. Those topics are therefore not measured here. What is measured for 1.2 MT is the mechanical specification: Gasoline, 1155 cm³, 18 hp, 13 kW, 4 cylinders, Opposite, 2 valves per cylinder, No boost, Carburetor, Manual, 4 gears, RWD, Drum front brakes, Drum rear brakes, Dependent, leaf spring front suspension, production 1932-01-01 to 1949-12-31.

Any claim about typical failures, spare-part life, or rust patterns would be outside this source and is not used.

Which Tatra 57 version to choose

There is 1 version: 1.2 MT. There is no second named version to compare on horsepower, displacement, gearbox, or drive. Arithmetic comparison between two catalogue versions is therefore not available: 18 hp minus a second version’s hp cannot be calculated because a second version is not in the data. 1155 cm³ is the only displacement. Manual with 4 gears is the only gearbox. RWD is the only drive. Gasoline is the only fuel. Boost is No on the only row.

If the catalogue later adds another version with the same name, versions with the same name would be split by power; here there is a single 1.2 MT at 18 hp (13 kW), so no same-name split is required.

Choose 1.2 MT as the only listed Tatra 57: Sedan 2-doors, 1 generation, 1932-01-01 to 1949-12-31, Gasoline 1155, 18 hp / 13 kW, 4 cylinders Opposite, 2 valves per cylinder, No boost, Carburetor, Manual 4, RWD. Performance, mpg, weights, clearance, tank, wheels, torque, engine location, compression, bore and stroke, fuel grade, CO2, eco class, and rear suspension remain not measured.
