DIXI (latin for "I have
spoken") was involved in the manufacturer of small cars from the
period of 1904 through the late 20s. In 1928, the parent
company of DIXI, Fahrzeugfabrik Eisenach A.G., was purchased by BMW,
which used the DIXI as a springboard to begin the production of
automobiles. Prior to this, the company had been involved in
the manufacture of airplane engines, railway brakes, motorcycle
engines (1919), and ultimately their own motorcycle in 1923.
The DIXI name faded from
view shortly after the BMW takeover.
(from BMW Press
Release) The Dixi 3/15 PS was a
licensed version of the successful British Austin Seven small car
and, following the takeover of the Eisenach car factory, became
BMW's very first four-wheeled model. It went into serial production
in December 1927.
