Warszawa was a Polish automobile marque manufactured from 1951 to 1973 by the FSO car factory of Warsaw. Named after the city of Warsaw, the Warszawa was identical to the Soviet Pobeda, built under license. The Warszawa was the first new-design Polish car built after the Second World War. Warszawas were popular as taxis because of their sturdiness and ruggedness. However, due to their weight they were underpowered and had high fuel consumption. In total, 254,471 cars were made.
