Those weren't modern mechanized infantry units. The main vehicle was the the horse drawn cart and the troops marched on foot.

The Soviets and the Germans couldn't afford to make a completely motorized army during WW2, much less a small country like Romania. Only the US succeeded in creating a fully motorized army.
