Messerschmitt cabin scooter
KR 202 Sport with four-stroke engine

The legend lives on

At first glance, the Messerschmitt cabin scooter from the 1950s and the one from the 21st century are hardly distinguishable. “A design of this quality and with this iconic character must be treated with the utmost respect!” emphasises the father of the new edition of the Messerschmitt cabin scooter, Joachim Adlfinger. His main focus was on improving the technology. A four-stroke engine was to replace the original two-stroke engine. Safety was to be increased by improving the chassis and body – but all this was not allowed to change the appearance of the design.
In order to obtain approval for German road traffic, the technicians had to take into account safety requirements for the replica of the Messerschmitt cabin scooter for the road approval of the 21st century – requirements that the team around the developers fulfilled down to the last detail! The German general importer 3PPP, together with TÜV NORD, TÜV Rheinland & GTÜ, then took care of the German approval. With its German registration, the KR-202 Sport is equal to any modern passenger car of German manufacture, yet it has the aura and driving pleasure of a classic. Since the KR 202 Sport is considered a trike in its road registration, more precisely L5e, the Messerschmitt cabin scooter may be driven by anyone with a Class 3 or Class B driver’s license.
On the exterior of the vehicle, you only notice the numerous technical improvements at second glance: LED lights front and rear, wider and larger tyres, a small antenna on the rear – that’s it!

The ride is slowed by hydraulic disc brakes on all three wheels. The true revelation, however, is revealed when you open the bonnet at the rear of the Replica and take a look at the technical details under the classic body: It rests on an extremely torsion-resistant hybrid chassis made of hot-dip galvanised steel and aluminium honeycombs from racing technology. The rear swing arm, i.e. the engine-transmission unit, is guided by two adjustable oil pressure dampers, just like the steering knuckles at the front. While the front tyres on chrome-plated steel rims (on request and for an extra charge also in aluminium) have the dimensions 120/70-13, the tyre at the rear has the considerably larger dimension 140/70-14. Dampers, chassis architecture, tyre dimensions and the powerful 4-stroke EURO 5 petrol engine give the retro cabin scooter driving characteristics that one could only dream of in the 1950s and which even today bring a big grin to the pilot’s face! By the way, the KR 202 is also available with an electric drive instead of a combustion engine, then as KR 202 E!
