The present invention relates generally to motorized vehicles and more specifically to a three wheeled motorized vehicle providing a hybrid crossover between an automobile and a motorcycle that is able to take tight corners like a motorcycle by provision of a segment enclosing the operator that can lean into turns, The front segment contains two wheels for both steering and propulsion and is conventionally constructed like any typical front wheel drive vehicle. The rear segment contains the operator (and optionally passenger) supported on a single wheel, The two segments are joined together via a coupling that both supports the assembly and allows rotation of the rear segment about the longitudinal axis to perform the lean for operator and or passenger comfort, while transmitting critical control functions.
