- Sava (Spain)
Sociedad Anónima de Vehículos Automoviles (S.A.V.A.) was a Spanish producer of light and medium commercial vehicles, based in
Valladolid .They started in 1957 with a 3-wheeled vehicle, but soon switched to make a Barreiros engined light truck. Later on, they built heavier models based on the British-designed Austin, Morris and BMC commercial series, marketed as Sava, Sava-Austin, or Sava-BMC, including the well-known BMC 'FG' range.
For a short while Sava also assembled the heavy French
Berliet GPS-12, sold as Sava-Berliet.In early 60s Sava went to cabs of their own design, and from then on only the Sava badge was used.
In 1968
Enasa , the maker ofPegaso trucks, took over S.A.V.A., but the Sava brand subsisted until a year later, when all the range was rebadged as Pegaso.
