The World's Smallest Car Was Only 51.8 Inches Long

Meet the Peel P50, a British three-wheeled microcar from the 1960s. Built in 1962, this tiny vehicle holds the Guinness World Record for the smallest car ever produced. Weighing just 135 pounds and powered by a 49cc engine, the Peel P50 was only 51.8 inches long and 41.7 inches wide. Its owner, John Griffiths, reportedly drove it to the local shop and back home, making it a unique and bizarre entry in automotive history.
