Facts about the model

The car Tjorven was actually called KVD 440/441, but the mail carrier, who was in the test prototype, thought the car had a tricky appearance, reminiscent of the character Tjorven in the contemporary TV series Saltkråkan. Then the car was called for just Tjorven on the Swedish market.
Tjorven or Kalmar, as it was called on the export market, was a van, manufactured by Kalmar Verkstad AB (Kalmar Verkstad AB) in Kalmar between 1969 and 1971. DAF Tjorven had the same engine and driveline as DAF 44 but a brand new body with a lot of different solutions for its time.
The car was designed to be used as a mail carrier car and had in its original version only a folding stool that could be used for a passenger. The car had sliding doors with the driver's seat on the right side, so that the mail carrier could stop the car right at the mailbox, open the door and put the mail in the mailbox without leaving the car. Some prototypes with a body made of sheet metal were manufactured for testing. When it was then produced, Tjorven received a glass fiber reinforced plastic body on top of a frame of steel profiles. The 1969 model had a 6 volt power system that was replaced with 12 volt for the 1970 model.
