The World's Lowest Roadworthy Car is Mirai!

The current holder of the Guinness World Record for the lowest roadworthy car is Mirai, which measures only 45.2 cm tall, beating the current holder by almost 6 centimeters. Mirai, which means "future" in Japanese, was created by the automobile engineering course students and teachers of Okayamo Sanyo High School in Asakuchi, Japan on November 12, 2010.

This car runs on six main batteries: the motors controlling components from "Q-car," which is produced by CQ motors in Japan, and the switching console from a motorbike. Everything else in the chassis, body, suspension, steering system, lights, seat and all other parts were made at the high school.
