The Goliath Pionier is a small three-wheeled two-seater vehicle first presented by Carl F. W. Borgward at the 1931 Berlin motor show.
In the decade following the First World War Germany experienced desperate poverty, and many micro-car designs were marketed, but the Pionier was both prettier and technically better thought through than competitors, and it enjoyed considerable success.
The vehicle was built around a timber frame, coated with a skin of synthetic leather fabric.
By 1934 the minimalist approach of the three-wheeled microcars was no longer favoured by the German car market.
In 1933 Borgward derived a commercial freight vehicle version of the Pionier and marketed is as the Goliath F400.
