Baby Martin auto sized for infant’s cart and fuel frugal design
The Baby Martin automobile touted by James Martin from Garden City would ship by mail in a weather proof case that doubles as a garage. Small as a go cart with limited wheelbase, it promises 50 to 60 miles per gallon and a top speed around 60 mph. The vehicle lacks a traditional chassis, using independent wheel mounting and aviation cord suspension to reduce unsprung weight.
