The Ursus A is a family of Polish trucks and buses from the interwar period and World War II. The first prototypes were presented at the turn of 1927-1928, and serial production lasted from 1928 to 1931. The manufacturer was the Ursus Mechanical Plant, with production taking place in Czechowice near Warsaw. It is estimated that total production amounted to approximately 900-1,200 vehicles, both civilian and military. Power was provided by a single 2.9-liter engine with a maximum power of 35 hp. The Ursus A family included several vehicles. The basic model was a military truck designated Ursus A, A30, and AW. It featured a wooden passenger cabin and cargo bed frame, and a steel sheet frame. The vehicle had good off-road capabilities and a robust construction. The Ursus AT, a three-axle version of the military truck, was also produced. The next development was the Ursus AW, a vehicle with a longer and reinforced chassis compared to the A and AT models, mounted on a bus body capable of transporting up to 22 people. However, the concept of creating a passenger car remained only in the plans.
