Glas produced three models on the Goggomobil platform: the #GoggomobilTsedan, the #GoggomobilTScoupé, and the #GoggomobilTLvan. The engine was an #AirCooled, #TwoStroke, #TwoCylinder unit originally displacing #250cc, but later available in increased sizes of #300cc and #400cc. It had an electric pre-selective transmission built by #Getrag and a #ManualClutch. The engine was behind the rear wheels.

The Goggomobil T250 was introduced by Glas at the 1954 #IFMA international bicycle and motorcycle show. The T250 was a conventional-looking two door sedan with a rear-mounted 245 cc air-cooled two-stroke straight twin engine. Design changes were made to the T250 in 1957. Two #WindshieldWipers were used instead of the earlier single wiper, and the sliding windows in the doors were changed to wind-up windows. Also at this time the T300 and T400 became available; these had larger engines of 300 cc and 400 cc capacity respectively. The last design change for the T sedan came in 1964, when the rear-hinged suicide doors were replaced by conventional front-hinged doors. 214,313 sedans had been built before production ended on 30 June 1969.
