The IFA H6 is a 6.5 tonne lorry, made by East German manufacturer VEB Kraftfahrzeugwerk »Ernst Grube« Werdau. It was available in long wheelbase lorry (H6), and short wheelbase tractor (H6Z) versions. Approximately 7,500 were built from 1952 to 1959. The bus IFA H6B was based upon IFA H6 components. For political reasons, there were no successors to the H6. Such had been developed, but production of the smaller IFA S 4000-1 commenced at IFA's Werdau plant instead.[1]
