Framo also built one of the first Micro-Cars in the world, the Framo 300, a three-wheeler, using a 300-cc DKW 2-stroke motorcycle engine.
This little car was highly successful and was sold mostly as a vehicle for tradesmen and deliveries, representing stiff competition for Goliath and Tempo, the latter company which as ‘Tempo-Bajaj’ put India on wheels in the late 1960s.
