Three Wheel Electric Cars Are An Old Concept

We have posted about the Aptera, a three-wheeled electric vehicle, reminiscent of a Cessna without wings, that is nearing production and can be seen being road tested in Southern California. However, as this film from the 1920's demonstrates, three-wheeled electric cars are nothing new. In fact, they were considered a "woman's car" just prior to the Great Depression. They also had one up on the modern Aptera - they could be folded up.
