About the Car: The BMW Isetta 250 / 300 “Bubble Car”

Originally designed by Italian scooter and refrigerator manufacturer Iso SpA in 1953, the egg-shaped Isetta (“little Iso”) was licensed by BMW in 1955 at a critical turning point in the Bavarian automaker’s post-war recovery. Re-engineered by BMW to house a 247cc (and later 298cc) single-cylinder, four-stroke motorcycle engine producing 12 to 13 horsepower, the BMW Isetta could reach a top speed of 85 km/h (53 mph) while sipping just 3.3 liters of fuel per 100 km.

Its most famous engineering quirk was its single front-mounted door: when opened, the steering column and instrument cluster swung outward along with the door to allow the driver and passenger easy access to the bench seat. Between 1955 and 1962, BMW produced 161,728 units, making the beloved “Bubble Car” the world’s top-selling single-cylinder automobile of its era and saving BMW from financial collapse. Due to its ultra-compact footprint and nimble handling, specialized utility conversions—such as German municipal Feuerwehr (fire brigade) support vehicles fitted with roof-mounted ladders and equipment racks—served in narrow European town centers, inspiring the playful silhouette of this AR Box 1:64 casting.
