But we have not thought about a car so small barely a scooter's size.The Peel P50 is a three-wheeled microcar manufactured in 1962 and 1965 by Peel Engineering on the Isle of Man.The Peel P50 the single seater car has been resurrected and has staged a comeback.The P50 originally weighed less than 59 kilograms and was just 134cm long and 99 cm wide.
According to the first version of the stock the car had enough space for just one adult and one shopping bag to be placed,A single door on the left hand side,one windscreen wiper and one head light .But the latest incarnation of the car is believed to have electric motors putting up 1 Kilowatt of power.The car can attain a speed of 12 Km/hour.
The car has two front wheels and one on the back and the latest is almost on the lines of the original with only major mechanical differences in suspension,steering and drive train.
