The Lloyd 300 was a small car produced by the Borgward Group's Lloyd Motoren Werke GmbH (Lloyd Motor Works) in Bremen between 1950 and 1952.[1]

The full name of the Lloyd 300 featured a two letter prefix that identified the body shape. The Lloyd LP300 (saloon; some say "LP" signifies Limousine-Personenwagen, but others quote it as Lloyd Personenwagen which is more consistent with the names for the other bodystyles) was released in May 1950, while the LC300 (Lloyd Coupé) and LS300 (Lloyd Stationswagen / estate) followed early in 1951. There was also a panel van version, the LK (Lloyd Kastenwagen).
