Production1946–1958
Recorded originUnited Kingdom
ClassFour-passenger motor rickshaw
Passenger-carrying derivative of the Tri-Van, replacing its delivery body with a four-person transverse seat over the paired rear wheels. It retained the characteristic integral engine, transmission, steering-fork and front-drive assembly. No dependable dimensions, weight, seating arrangement beyond the published four-person bench, gearbox confirmation, price, launch year or final build year are separately preserved, so its chronology is bounded transparently by Turner's official 1946–58 light-delivery-vehicle program rather than invented more narrowly.

How this is measured → This record contains useful sourced evidence, but it does not yet meet the reference-ready standard. Still needed: attributed imagery. Fields we cannot source stay empty rather than guessed.
Research notes
No reliable production total survives, and accessible histories describe the Rixi as an unsuccessful Tri-Van derivative.
