Slow Cars
Automative

Everyone knows which are the fastest and most expensive cars in the world, but do you know which are the slowest cars in the world in 2021 and What their top speed is?

After reading the article about the Bugatti Chiron, the fastest car, one question surely may have come to 70% of people’s minds. If Chiron is the fastest then which is the slowest car.

Keeping all these things in mind, we have prepared the list of the 10 slowest cars in the world. You’d think that all cars would at least offer a certain level of performance in this day and age, but you’d be wrong. These cars are beyond slow!

In the place of fast cars, we get uninspiring models that are too slow for anyone. Carmakers really shouldn’t have any excuse for producing slow cars, turbocharging is a cheap solution to produce more power, sadly even forced induction cars are mated with sluggish transmissions, wasting otherwise useful power.

Check out the list to know more about specifications, facts & dimensions.

List of Top 10 Slowest Cars of the world

1. Peel P50 Car

Peel P50 Car(slowest car)

Peel P50 is not only the world’s slowest car and ultra-compact car but also the smallest car in the world, only one person can sit inside it. This car was designed by Peel Engineering (headquarter in the Isle of Man)  from 1962 to 1965 and its remanufacturing was started in 2010. Peel P50 prices are also low as it is a single-seater car.

It is a three-wheeler microcar car that is so small in fact, it gets the title of Guinness Book of World Records for the “smallest production car” for over 50 years. It is a single-seat slowest car that can not go up to the speed of 38 km/hr. The original model of this car has no reverse gear, but a handle at the rear allows the very lightweight car to be maneuvered physically when required.

Facts about Peel P50 Car:

  1. The Peel is a three-wheeler single-seater powered by a 50cc petrol engine.
  2. It has only one door on the left-hand side and has one single headlight.
  3. The peel is available in two different variants- the trident which is the entry-level variant and the top-end variant P50. Both variants don’t have a reverse gear.

Facts about Renault Twizy:

  1. The Twizy consists of scissor-type doors that open straight up. The engineers certainly had a practical reason for this decision, but the upshot is to make this sort of go-kart. Because in Twizy drivers sit in the middle of the car, you can open the car doors and exit in either direction.
  2. The rudimentary electronic displays show your speed, charge level, and estimated range until you run out of juice. That’s about it. No radio, no A/c, and no charging ports.
  3. There is no trunk, pockets, or space under the rear seat. Welcome to the future of pure urban mobility: Twizzie amounts of storage for whatever backseat passengers can hold in their hands and stash on their feet.
