At the beginning of the 1920s, Czech car manufacturers were focusing on producing large and expensive cars which only the rich could afford. Some companies began to introduce less expensive designs, intending them to be affordable for the middle class. Tatra entered this market with the Tatra 11, to which the Tatra 12 was the successor.
