Opelit Mopetta

Encyclopedia : O : OP : OPE : Opelit Mopetta


The Opelit Mopetta was an egg-shaped, single seat, three wheeled Microcar designed by Egon Brütsch, who also designed the Spatz Kabinenroller, in 1957 as Brütsch Mopetta using a 50cc engine and an open roadster type glass fibber body. The single wheel was in the front. It was only 67 inches (170 cm.) long. There were negotiations with Mr. Opal (the family, not the GM subsidiary) to distribute the car, but only 14 were built.
