Background
The SMZ was a Soviet cyclecar or microcar, manufactured in Serpukhov, Russia, by Serpukhov Motor Works, later known as the now-defunct SeAZ. The most common models were the S-3A and S-3D. They were specially designed for disabled drivers and were distributed in the USSR for free or at a large discount through the Soviet Union's social welfare system, and were not officially sold to non-disabled people.
The S-3A-M was produced between 1958 and 1970. It was powered by a 346 cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine, giving 10 hp (7 kW) and a top speed of 55 km/h (34 mph).
