Automobile Classification - Microcar

Microcar

Straddling the boundary between car and motorbike, these vehicles have engines under 1.0 litre, typically seat only two passengers, and are sometimes unorthodox in construction. Some microcars are three-wheelers, while the majority have four wheels. Microcars were popular in post-war Europe, where their appearance led them to be called "Bubble cars". More recent microcars are often electric powered.

Examples of microcars:

  • Isetta
  • REVAi/G-Wiz
  • Tata Nano
