The Trike model was introduced by BSA in 1930. It was a three-wheeler designed as an economical and efficient alternative to the conventional automobile. The Trike combined the maneuverability of a motorcycle with the carrying capacity of a car. These rear wheel drive vehicles had a 3-speed manual transmission and two engine options during its years of production: 1021cc V-Twin and 1075cc inline four. The BSA Trike was produced until 1935 due to decreased demand and competition from other more modern vehicles.
