1935 Zbrojovka Z-6

DKW wasn't the only two-stroke car manufacturer in Europe during the 1930s. In neighbouring Czechoslovakia there were several companies that independently developed two-stroke powered cars, such as Aero, Jawa, and Zbrojovka. Zbrojovka was primarily an armaments manufacturer in the city of Brno, but they decided to branch out into tractors, under the brand name Zetor, and cars under the name Z. Their cars were powered by a two or four cylinder water cooled two-stroke engine, ranging from 730cc for small cars like the Z-6 to 2 litres in their larger cars. In chassis and suspension, they followed the models established by Tatra in the 1920s. The Z-6 model here was a stylish and streamlined budget middle class car. They were sold in Germany until the Nazi occupation began in 1938, when the factory reverted to armament production. The company survives today manufacturing arms and tractors.

It is worth comparing the details in this advertisement with the contemporary DKW F5.
