Kleinschnittger was a German company that produced microcars between 1950 and 1957.

Their most common car, with 1992 examples produced, was powered by a 125 cc single cylinder two-stroke engine that produced 5.5 hp (4.1 kW) and had a top speed of 70 km/h (43 mph). The body was made of aluminium. It was quite fuel efficient and consumed roughly 2.5 litres per 100 km (94 miles per gallon).[1]

Kleinschnittger also produced the F250, which was fitted with a 250 cc engine from ILO-Motorenwerke giving 15 hp (11.2 kW). It consumed roughly 4 litres per 100 km (58.8 miles per gallon). 22 examples were produced.[2]

It is alleged that it was also made in Belgium under the name Kleinstwagen and in the Netherlands as the Alco.
