          wow pretty radical for 1930's (1937 below). Looks like they were produced up into the 70's, I confess I'd never heard of them.

                  Without question an enduring design. Look at how may years they remained relatively unchanged.

                    Your right (attached is the Tatra 1933 V570) It seems Ferdinand Porsche was involved in the first designs as well.
