When the Peel Engineering Company produced the Peel P50, a three-wheeled microcar in the 1960s, it went off with a huge bang. In 2010, it was recognized by the Guinness World Record as the smallest car ever produced. There's good news for P50 lovers – a new kit allows handy folks to build replicas.Even though production of the P50 was stopped in 1965, a few driven businessmen were able to revive the brand.
the new firm has built a replica that is far more accessible than one of the original 50 production cars, and it's electric.The new electric version is supposed to have a 4 kW motor that propels the small vehicle to a top speed of 28 mph .
“It’s our belief that the P50 and Trident are perfect as self-assembly kit cars, especially as a first build for the novice car builder. Being mechanically simple, extremely lightweight, and small by their very nature, they are a great introduction to the art of vehicle building. Our kits come with all the key components to get your ‘World’s Smallest Car’ on the road," says P50 cars."All that is required are a few tools, a little garage space and patience.
