Volkswagen GX3 concept front

What's this? A 1,257-pound three-wheeler with a rear-mounted 125-horsepower 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine and 6-speed manual that can reach 60 MPH in 5.7 seconds and grip the road to the tune of 1.25g? All while getting 46 miles per gallon and a sub-Jetta price of $17,000? Suddenly, going back to a tricycle doesn't seem like such a regression.
