The first model of the Leichter Panzerspähwagen series, the Sd.Kfz.221 was a light four-wheel drive armoured car equipped with a 7.92 mm Maschinengewehr 13 machine gun and designed for carrying a two members crew. Later, the Maschinengewehr 13 was replaced with an anti-tank rifle Panzerbüchse 39 in order to increase the fire power. Due to its small size and thin armour the vehicle was recognised as inefficient; the production stopped in 1940 with over 300 vehicles produced for the army.

The Leichter Panzerspähwagen was a German light armoured car produced from 1935 until 1944. Germany developed several variants of this vehicle. The Sd. Kfz. 222 was an improved version of the Sd. Kfz. 221, armed initially with a 2cm KwK 30 L/55 and a 7.92mm MG 13. Later on the MG 13 machine gun was replaced by the Maschinengewehr 34, and the KwK 30 was replaced by the KwK 38 of the same calibre. This variant of the vehicle was called the Leichter Panzerspähwagen 2 cm. Its production ran from 1937 to 1943 with nearly a thousand vehicles built in total.
The Sd. Kfz. 222 proved to be very efficient in the Balkans in 1941. Large numbers of these armoured cars were also sent to North Africa, however the limited volume of their fuel tanks meant the lack of effective range. The Sd. Kfz. 222 was gradually substituted with the Sd.Kfz.250/9 (Hanomag). A small number of vehicles were sold to China in 1939.

The Steyr ADGZ was developed for the Austrian Army by Austro-Daimler (which later merged with Steyr Automobile) from 1934 and delivered to the army in 1935-1937. In "ADGZ", "AD" stands for "Austro-Daimler". Its Austrian designation was M35 Mittlere Panzerwagen. During the Anschluss - the annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany - the Austrian army had 12 ADGZ armoured cars in use, and 15 more were used by the police. The Germans started using the ADGZ for police work and some vehicles were used by the SS on the Eastern Front and the Balkans. In 1942, the SS received 25 additional ADGZ cars.
The ADGZ was suitable for both urban usage and for maneuvering off-road. It had 6mm armour and weighed 12 tons. Either end of the vehicle was capable of driving the unit: drivers could operate the vehicle from the front or the rear switching almost immediately due to the dual transmission.

The Leichter Panzerspähwagen was a light four-wheel drive armoured car produced by Nazi Germany between 1935 and 1944. It had the standard sPkw I Horch 801 chassis and a 67 kW (90 hp) Horch 3.5 petrol engine, which gives it a road speed of 80 km/h and a cross-country speed of 40 km/h. The car had a maximum range of 300 km. Its armament consisted of one 2 cm KwK 30 L/55 main cannon and one MG 34 secondary machine gun.
The Leichter Panzerspähwagen was used by the reconnaissance battalions of the Panzer divisions. It performed well enough in countries with good road networks, like Western Europe, but on the Eastern Front and in North Africa it was hampered by its relatively poor off-road performance and was gradually replaced in the reconnaissance role by the Sdkfz 250 half-track.

The Saurer company started to develop the vehicle in 1936 as an artillery tractor for the Austrian army. The first tractors were produced in 1938. About 12 vehicles were made prior to Anschluss (incorporation of Austria into Nazi Germany, March 1938). After the Anschluss production continued. A total of 140 units were built with the new designation RK-7 (Räder-Kettenfahrgestell), although Wehrmacht called them Sd. Kfz. 254. The vehicle had a wheel/track layout and a diesel motor. The wheels were lowered when it was used on roads and retracted for cross-country movement. Some Sd. Kfz. 254's served as artillery observation vehicles for the Afrika Korps after being fitted with a radio and rail antenna.
