*Description:
A new land vehicle type from the same class started to be designed after 1966: Aro 240. 
the first of series 24. The new type started from the beginning with some important and 
major innovations considering the time when its design was completed. Its coachwork was 
entirely new, securing a more comfortable inside. 243 type was the first land car after 
Range Rover to use a curb chassis which allowed better stability. It had a 2,495 cc, 83 HP engine, 
a maximum speed of 115-120 km/h, a maximum slope of 35, 13.8 l/100km consumption. During a test 
organized by Ford-Europe company in 1972. Aro 240 came second after Range Rover, in front of Jeep-Willis,
Ford Bronco and the legendary Land Rover.At the beginning, the type was designed in two versions: 
with two doors and soft top (type 240), and with four doors station wagon (type 244). From those two
 versions slightly modified, the models pick-up 242 with short or long wheelbase, 3 doors-hardtop 
(type 243) or four doors with soft top (type 241) emerged. The 243 type had a full rear door and 
could host up to 8 persons in the rear side. The production of pick-up 320 type begun in 1978, and 
it was assembled at "Autobuzul"company from Bucharest."Following the oil crisis that started in 1973, 
Diesel engines were increasingly used for land vehicles, worldwide. In cooperation with Tractorul 
Brasov company, a Romanian diesel engine, D-127, started to be designed. That had 4 cylinders, 
3,119 cc, 68 HP, securing a 115 km/h speed, and a 12.3 1/100 km consumption. This engine was used at all types of 24 series.
In time, type 24 was modified, its dashboard and front side were reshaped. Aro-24 was exported to
 many countries, including Canada, UK, Australia and was produced in Portugal(named Pottaro) and 
Spain(named Hisparo). It also won once the famous Pharaohs Rally Raid driven by french Sarazin who 
bought the car from a showroom in France. The Romanian Army continue to use today this reliable car. 
Over 125,000 vehicles from the 24 series were manufactured by the end of the year 1985, from which 
over 93,000 were exported. After the 1989 Revolution, the 24 series has been rejuvenated, by 
undertaking import engines (Ford. Peugeot, Daewoo. Toyota. Andoria. Coswotth. and has been built 
in different new types, together with the old types: the four doors version of 243 named 246: pick-up 
with 2 or 4 doors (long or short wheelbase); platform with shooters (type 335), road tank: maxi-taxi:
 and even was used as school bus.
