During WW2 the Germans developed a staggering number of vehicles. It's rather painfully obvious that the Luchs was designed with the experience of vehicles like the SdKfz 234 and Schwerer Panzerspähwagen in world war 2 in mind. It looks similar, has a similar role, and has similar armament.  
During WW2 the Germans developed a staggering number of vehicles, like seriously the Germans in [[Flames of War]] (Battlefront's WW2 15mm game) have roughly 200 unique vehicles. Among this multitude were a variety of 8 wheeled reconnaissance vehicles like the SdKfz 234 and Schwerer Panzerspähwagen.

Luchs means Lynx

During WW2 the Germans developed a staggering number of vehicles, like seriously the Germans in Flames of War (Battlefront's WW2 15mm game) have roughly 200 unique vehicles. Among this multitude were a variety of 8 wheeled reconnaissance vehicles like the SdKfz 234 and Schwerer Panzerspähwagen. After the war, and the rise of the Iron Curtain, the West Germans began developing new generation of reconnaissance vehicles, which happened to have the 8 wheels and the same general layout of those WW2 armored cars.

Aside from the glaring similarities to its precursors, the Spahpanzer Luchs was an armored scout car that was utilized by the West Germans During the cold war. The Luchs was armed with one 20mm Rh202 auto cannon in the turret and a 7.62mm MG3 mounted on a pintel for the vehicle commander.
