The Unimog 70200 is the first series production model of the Unimog series, made by Gebr. Boehringer. It was manufactured in Boehringer's Göppingen plant from June 1948 to April 1951. In total, 600 units of the 70200 were made. Manufacture of the Unimog was sold to Daimler-Benz in October 1950, where it was modified for mass production. The mass-production optimised Unimog is known as Unimog 2010.[1]
The Unimog 70200 name was chosen because of Boehringer's cost centre. All Unimog 70200 vehicle identification numbers begin with 70200. Minuscules were used to differentiate between certain models.[2] It is said that approximately 100–120 Unimog 70200s have been preserved.[1]
