Let's talk about the mysterious vehicle that you, probably never heard of. Meet the tricycle Morrison Midge Runabout microcar built in the 1960s.





Have you ever seen a shop that can ride? Here she is. Called Morrison Midge and was created in the amount of only two copies. This one is the first and seems to be the only one, the second was lost.



I don’t know about you, but I have this vehicle is associated precisely with a bench on which you can move from place to place to a place, of course, off public roads.





This thing is powered by an electric motor. equivalent to 1 hp, its pulley is connected by a belt to a pulley on the back axles, there are no differentials, suspensions and other things here, as well as understanding why this miracle of technology was born at all.



I assume that it was a promotional car from Morrison, which produced in the fifties, small electric vans for milkmen.
