The company was founded as Josef und Franz Werndl and Company in 1864 as a rifle manufacturer, but became known as Steyr-Werke AG in 1924. It began producing bicycles in 1894, and Steyr automobiles in 1915. In 1934, Steyr merged with Austro-Daimler-Puch to form Steyr-Daimler-Puch. During World War II Steyr-Daimler-Puch used slave labour, notably in the Mauthausen-Gusen camp complex at Gusen. This practice was in common with many other larger German companies, such as Mercedes-Benz and MAN, during that time. The vehicle range was built for military use, including the Steyr RSO Raupenschlepper Ost with an air-cooled 3.5-litre V8 engine designed by Ferdinand Porsche, who worked for the company at that time.
