H. " as a producer of detonators (Zünder- und Apparatebau is German for Igniter and also Apparatus). In 1919, as the demand with regard to weapons parts declined following WWI, Neumeyer became the sole proprietor with the company, and two years later he diversified in the construction of motorcycles.Following WWII, Zündapp expanded into the particular microcar, moped and Scooter (motorbike) markets.

The 1st Zündapp motorcycle was the model Z22 in 1921. This was the Motorrad für Jedermann ("motorcycle for everyone"), a simple, reliable design that was produced in large series. Zündapp's history of weighty motorcycles began in 1933 while using K-series. The "K" refers to the kind of drivetrain that these versions used, Kardanantrieb, meaning enclosed driveshaft with two universal joints. Zündapp introduced the enclosed crankcase (then a novelty). The series encompassed products from 200 to 400 cc displacement and was an important success, increasing Zündapp's market share in Germany from 5% throughout 1931 to 18% throughout 1937.The Zündapp KS600, first released in 1938, had a 28 hp . p . (21 kW) flat in a trench opposed twin cylinder electric motor with overhead valves displacing 597 cc (36. 4 cu in). The KS600 was often in addition to a Steib sidecar, the BW38 (Beiwagen 1938). The BW38, fitted with the B1 (Trunk no. 1) sidecar physique was produced between 1938 and 1941 and supplied exclusively towards Wehrmacht. While the KS600 was discontinued and at last replaced by the purpose-built KS750, its motor was to be the only remnant to reside in beyond the destruction connected with war. When Zündapp returned to motorcycle production in the late 1940s, it chose to recycle the KS600's motor to power the KS601 having few modifications.The Zündapp K800 experienced unit construction, flat-four engines with the whole length drive (a structure adopted by Honda for the Gold Wing in 1974) and were really the only 4-cylinder machines used by the German armed forces within WWII.
From 1931 Ferdinand Porsche and Zündapp developed the prototype Vehicle für Jedermann ("car for everyone"), which was the first-time the name Volkswagen had been used. Porsche preferred the 4-cylinder flat engine, but Zündapp used a water-cooled 5-cylinder radial powerplant. In 1932 three prototypes ended up running. All three cars were lost over the war, the last in any 1945 Stuttgart bombing raid.From 1936 to 1938 Zündapp created the KKS500 model. This was the first Zündapp which has a foot gear change, and 170 examples had been built. From 1940 onward Zündapp produced a lot more than 18, 000 units of this Zündapp KS 750. This is a sidecar outfit using a driven side wheel and also a locking differential, supplied to the German born Wehrmacht.Zündapp also made aircraft engines including the 9-092, which was used inside light aircraft, including the Brunswick LF-1 Zaunkönig (1942) abs initio trainer aircraft.

After WWII the business transitioned to smaller devices, notably the "Bella" generator scooter, which was a relatively heavy machine due to the type. In 1951 Zündapp released the final of its heavy street bike models, but one of its most famous: the KS601 (the actual "green elephant") with a 598 cc two-cylinder engine. From 1957 to 1958 the business also produced the Zündapp Janus microcar.In 1958 the organization moved from Nuremberg to help Munich. Subsequently, the company developed several new smaller models, discontinued the development of four-stroke engines in support of produced two-stroke models. Zündapp experienced some achievement in motorsports with participant André Malherbe winning the actual 125cc European motocross titles in 1973 and all over again in 1974. Initially, Zündapp scooters and mopeds available well, but later sales diminished and in 1984 this company went bankrupt and closed.

After the bankruptcy, the entire production series and intellectual properties has been bought by Xunda Electric motor Co., Tianjin, China. They produced small Zündapp motorcycles from 1987 till their early 1990s. Zündapp is still in business, but makes Honda primarily based 4-stroke motorcycles and electric mopeds.Zündapp also had a new technical collaboration with Regal Enfield (India) to develop mopeds and motorcycles. A dedicated factory seemed to be built at Ranipet near Chennai from the early 1980s to make small, lightweight two-stroke motorcycles to be offered with their flagship Royal Enfield Bullet. Enfield launched two 50 cc motorcycles first, the step-thru Silver Plus and the 3-speed Explorer motorcycle. Later, 175 cc Enfield Fury (based on Zündapp KS175) was introduced to be a performance motorcycle. It had 5-speed gearbox, a hydraulic Brembo disc brake and also a sleeveless hard chromed storage container barrel, all were a first on the motorcycle in that state.
