Isn't Eisenwerk Weserhütte the designer and Auto Union the manufacturer?

It was a Home Guard vehicle, an enormous one, built onto the bus chassis, for the particular use of London Passenger Transport Board Home Guard at the Chiswick Depot of London Transport. They were not really armoured only built up from mild steel plate but naturally to a very high standard.

The Bison was an extemporised armoured fighting vehicle frequently characterised as a mobile pillbox. Bisons were produced in Britain during the invasion crisis of 1940-1941. Based on a number of different lorry chassis, it featured a fighting compartment protected by a layer of concrete. Bisons were used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) to protect aerodromes and by the Home Guard. They acquired the generic name \"Bison\" from their main manufacturer.
