Heinkel Kabine 175 Typ 150

The Heinkel Kabine 175 Typ 150 was a microcar produced by the German aircraft manufacturer Heinkel, entering production in the mid-1950s. It was part of the Kabine series, which were designed as small, economical vehicles in post-war Europe, appealing to drivers looking for affordable transportation.

The Heinkel Kabine 175 Typ 150 featured a single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 175 cc, producing around 9 horsepower. This engine allowed the car to reach a top speed of approximately 55 to 60 km/h (34 to 37 mph). It had a rear-mounted engine and a three-wheel design, similar to other bubble cars of the time, like the BMW Isetta.

The car’s body was compact and lightweight, designed to be practical for city driving and easy to park in tight spaces. Despite its small size, the Kabine could seat up to two adults and featured a door at the front, which opened forward, allowing access to the cabin.

The Heinkel Kabine 175 was known for its simplicity, ease of maintenance, and fuel efficiency, making it a popular choice in the microcar segment during the 1950s and early 1960s. Today, it is regarded as a collectible classic, especially among microcar enthusiasts.
