Three and four wheeled car design makes ground contact with main front and rear wheels only in straight drive with side wheels set higher clear of ground except in curves.

摘要

When driving straight ahead the rolling resistance is taken up entirely by the main front (VM) and rear (HM) wheels arranged in tandem central to the vehicle longitudinal axis. Two auxiliary wheels (AML and AMR) are arranged off center to the vehicle transverse axis and these outer wheels (AML,AMR) are arranged higher than the main wheels and thus out of contact with the ground when driving straight. The wheels form a diamond pattern as arranged. Seating is also in balance in that the driver sits forward in the center and passenger etc sits in line behind or to the left and right outside.
