Interesting Facts About the FSO Warszawa
The FSO Warszawa rolled off the Polish assembly line for the first time on November 23, 1951, marking the debut of the first post‑war Polish car. Although the factory was built to produce up to 25,000 cars a year, the Warszawa never reached that capacity.

First Post‑War Polish Car (1951)
Production of the FSO Warszawa began on November 23, 1951, when the very first vehicle left the assembly line in Warsaw, introducing the first domestically built car of the Soviet‑era Poland.
Design Evolution – Stepped Rear (1964)
Thirteen years after production started, the Warszawa received a notable redesign in 1964 with the introduction of a stepped rear end, a styling cue that remained in use until 1972.
From Soviet Parts to Home‑Made Engineering
Early Warszawas relied heavily on components supplied by the USSR, including a side‑valve engine from Russian GAZ, but over time FSO began manufacturing its own engines and parts, reducing dependence on Soviet supplies.
