At just 54 inches long and 41 inches wide, the 1962-1965 Peel P50 is the world’s smallest production car. Only 50 were built, with 27 of the originals known to still be in existence. In 2010, the British company began to build updated versions with electric motors.

Interest in the Peel P50 was renewed recently when it was featured on the British motoring show Top Gear, with host Jeremy Clarkson (now of the Amazon series The Grand Tour) driving around – and inside of – BBC headquarters.
