The Alfi was a German automobile built in Berlin (Prussia) by an electrical company between 1921 and 1924.
The same company had been responsible for the AAA (AG für Akkumulatoren- und Automobilbau) electric cars and vans which were supplied in large numbers to the German Post Office. In 1922 when they decided to move to engine driven cars they changed their name to Alfi, derived from the owners name Alex Fischer.
The first Alfi model had a 780cc flat-twin engine. This was followed by a side valve 940cc inline-four engine manufactured by Steudel of Kamenz in Saxony. Next came an inline four of 1320cc built by Atos of Berlin.
A new Alfi company, Alfi Automobile GmbH was formed in 1927, also by Alex Fischer. This time the cars and vans were three-wheelers powered by DKW engines driving the single front wheel. These could be turned 180 degrees to propel the car backward. An additional four-wheeled model, the 4-wheeled Alfi Sport, had a 2/10PS engine, was bodied as an open or coupe two-seater, and was produced in small numbers.
The company closed in 1928.
