Alex Orchin drives the blue Peel P50, a vehicle so small with three wheels that you can barely put a super bag in it.
But he really doesn't get mad at it: "They laugh at me, but I laugh last when I'm at the gas station."

The smallest car in the world (YouTube)
Do you have a compact and small car?
It is probably much larger than the vehicle of 31-year-old Alex Orchin, who maintains the "smallest vehicle in the world."
Alex has a blue Peel P50.
This car "rises" to a height of 100 centimeters and a width of 98 centimeters, with a length of only 134 centimeters and it reaches a maximum speed of only 37 km / h.

This is how it was built
But while many people make fun of Alex, he claims to be the last to laugh at the gas station, where he fills an entire tank at a cost of £ 7 (about 30 shekels). Alex is a collector of motor products who loves to drive his three-wheeled vehicle and loves attention The heart he receives

And here he is on the road
This car has only one seat and it is not possible to put even a suitcase in it.
Alex, an ordinary man 180 inches tall, had to put his feet on the sides of the steering wheel so he could get into the vehicle.
He claims he has developed an obsession with vehicles since watching Jeremy Clarkson drive a "Top Gear".
"I was always interested in old cars, vintage cars and unconventional cars," he recounted, "no one in my family was obsessed with it, it was my random obsession."
He added: "This car always attracts attention, for me it's just a small car. I can put a shopping bag to the left of the Hand Break handle, but not beyond that."
The Phil P50 is a model of a micro wheel, with 3 wheels, (tricycle), intended for a single passenger, which was created by the company "Peel Engineering Company" between the years 1962-1965.
In 2010 it was selected as the smallest commercial vehicle ever built in the Guinness Book of Records. It then began its re-production from 2011 to the present, including an electric model.
