The Type 181—officially designated by the Bundeswehr as the „Pkw 0.4 t tmil 4×2“ (partially militarised, rear-wheel drive)—was procured from 1969 onwards as a rugged and inexpensive interim vehicle for courier, liaison, and driver-training duties.

The unarmed basic version, without radio or blue-light equipment, was a prime example of minimalism. It could accommodate four soldiers and dispensed entirely with carpets and interior trim. The cabin featured exposed sheet metal, olive-green vinyl seats, and drainage holes in the floor, allowing the vehicle to be cleaned easily with a water hose after use. Maximum openness was provided by a fully folding fabric roof, a windscreen that could be folded forward, and four doors that could be removed without tools.

Technically, the Type 181 was based on a modified Karmann Ghia floorpan and proven Beetle components. At the rear, it was powered by an air-cooled four-cylinder boxer engine, initially producing 44 hp from a displacement of 1.5 litres and, from 1973 onwards, 48 hp from 1.6 litres. Despite the lack of four-wheel drive, the vehicle offered impressive off-road capability thanks to the weight of the engine over the driven axle and a standard differential lock.

A major logistical advantage was its ease of maintenance. Because it used mass-produced civilian components, repairs could be carried out simply and inexpensively through the regular dealership network. In total, the Bundeswehr acquired more than 15,000 of these virtually indestructible courier vehicles, many of which remained in service well into the 1990s.
