This is a one of a kind concept and totally different to any other 3 wheeler ever designed. Designer Tan Sohanpall set out to create a new concept vehicle that shared little in common with other accepted designs. There have been three-wheeled vehicles since the early dawn of transportation, but few if any have ever featured two wheels on one side and one with a wider contact patch on the other. We have serious doubts as to whether this arrangement would actually work in the real world, but as a concept it’s pretty cool. The Enigma is intended to be a car for thrill-seekers, and it looks the part.
Other unique bits include a single-occupant driver compartment that slides rearward at high speeds and a tilting body that could theoretically lean into turns. There’s no indication of what would actually power the Enigma, but it looks like some sort of turbine or ducted fan arrangement. Interesting? Undoubtedly. Realistic? Not so much, but so what? As a concept, we love its asymmetric audacity.

even though it should be a car for thrillseekers i won’t get in it even if they pay me. The concept looks interesting but that’s why many people like cars rather than bikes: cars have 4 wheels!
It’s a circle/oval track car only. Brake hard and turn left (in these renders) and you run straight into a major issue; you crash.
This looks like a Handicapped vehicle… pretty much like a Reliant Robin!
