Praga

Praga is a manufacturing company based in Prague, Czech Republic. The company produced motorcycles, automobiles, trucks and airplanes. The Praga V3S 5-ton truck was used by the Czechoslovak Army for more than half a century. The current company produces karts, racing and road supersports and is involved in car racing. It produces up to 7,000 kart chassis every year, making it one of the most successful kart manufacturers in the world.
Praga was founded in 1907 to build motor cars, the first being the Charon, as a venture between entrepreneur František Ringhoffer and the company 1. českomoravská továrna na stroje. Ringhoffer only stayed for one year and in 1909 the trade name Praga was adopted. One of its early models was built under licence from the Italian company of Isotta Fraschini....
