27 - 1957 Messerschmitt KR 200
The name Messerschmitt is likely familiar to many of you. Some German military planes used during World War II carried the name. At the end of the conflict, the company responsible for their manufacture was not allowed to build planes.
The creator of this car, Fitz Fend, had his vehicle built inside the company's factories. The car was a hit with motorcyclists who wanted a roof on rainy days and with car enthusiasts who appreciated the good deal: the Messerschmitt sold for half the price of a Volkswagen. Its 191-cc engine produced 10 hp. A total of 25,000 units were produced.
28 – Jarret, la voiture électronique, 1969
One look at this car and you can figure it probably was not approved for the road. “Shank, the Electronic Car” was designed to move, in an environmentally friendly way, two occupants through any business space. Its top speed was about 30 km/h.
The Shank was driven using a joystick-style joystick. Two electric motors, each connected to a rear wheel, were responsible for powering it. Only seven were ever built.
29 - 1932 Martin Martinette
This is one of the two other cars produced by James V. Martin. Presented at the New York Air Show in 1932, the Martinette incorporated several elements borrowed from aviation into its design. Access to the car happened via a single door at the front. Three prototypes were made, but none went into production.
