The first training area will be set up primarily for distribution, but also at least partially for technicians. Sales organizations arise in Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Italy.

An indicator that the decisive steps in the direction of the assembly line are performed not until 1923 is even the strike at the beginning of the year 1924. The criticizes exactly the new working conditions especially the situation that with less (hand) work will be created more production value, but the workers will benefit nothing.

The production can be increased again by 50 percent to 76,000 vehicles. Meanwhile, one uses indeed entirely American-inspired production methods. But the difference with America is still enormous, considering the maximum daily production reached 500 compared to 9000.
