H-M Vehicles of Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA built about 700 of these three-wheeled cars from 1980 to 1982. They were high-mileage vehicles that reportedly get 40 to 75 miles per gallon.

The car is powered by a Tecumseh 16 horsepower engine. The transmission is centrifugal, with one gear featuring variable drive.

Through bankruptcy, the company was purchased by D&A Vehicles who, following some improvements, introduced the "Minikin" in 1985.
