Bootswerft Zeppelinhafen GmbH of Potsdam-Wildpark briefly diversified from boatbuilding into automobiles under the B.Z. name in 1923–1924. Its sole documented car was a 300 kg two-seat cyclecar with a light-alloy body, a 494 cc BMW flat-twin producing 6 hp, three forward gears and reverse. The compact machine was credited with 60 km/h and 20-percent gradeability. No additional model name or series is recorded, so the source-defined cyclecar constitutes the complete known BZ range.
