Miniature car enthusiasts can now assemble the popular Peel P50 on their own. The car will be equipped with an electric motor and will be able to drive almost anywhere. About it reported on the electrek site.
The original Peel P50 was introduced back in the early 1960s. It was the smallest production car in the world.
Peel P50 was positioned for short city trips. The model never had a reverse gear, but instead had a handle in the back.
