AC Petite

The AC Petite is a three-wheeled British microcar with a rear-mounted 350 cc Villiers single cylinder, two-stroke engine. The car has a single bench seat seating two adults, and was said to be capable of 60 mpgimp to 70 mpgimp and 40 mph.

There were two versions of the car. Between 1953 and 1955 the car was fitted with a Villiers 27B engine and two different sizes of wheel; the rears were 18 in spoked wheels whilst the front was only 8 in. In 1955 a Mark II version was launched, incorporating minor changes to the exterior trim, a slightly more powerful Villiers 28B engine and 12 in wheels front and rear.

Approximately 4,000 AC Petites were built.
