The Tata Magic Iris is a 3-door, 4- or 5-seater microvan/minivan manufactured by Tata Motors. Powered by a 600cc one-cylinder diesel engine, it is intended to compete with auto-rickshaws.
With its engine delivering 11 hp (8 kW) and 31 Nm of torque, the vehicle has a top speed of just 34 mph (55 km/h).
The Magic Iris is made using an all steel body and frame - reinforced by reverse hat section chassis rails and beams, welded under its floor.
The vehicle features all-around independent suspension with coil springs - MacPherson struts in the front, and semi-trailing arms in the rear.
With a vehicle length 1cm shorter than the 1957 Fiat 500, the Magic Iris is one of the shortest four-seat cars ever produced -- however its limited top speed would prohibit actually registering it as a car in many countries.
