The Daf 44 was presented in 1967 and inaugurated a new body, called "B-body" whose lines had been designed by the young designer Giovanni Michelotti. Although barely larger than the contemporary 33, the 44 could count on optimized internal volumes. Powered by an 844cc, 34 horsepower twin-cylinder engine, the 44 was also available in a break version. The Daf 44 remained in production until 1975.
