'''T-Rex''' is a 2-seat, 3-wheeled [[motorcycle]] that combines the look and handling of a car with the fuel economy of motorcycle, created by Canadian Auto/Bike builder [[Campagna Corporation]]. Using a 1.2L, 4-cylinder engine, it accelerates from 0-97 km/h (0-60 mph) in 4.1 seconds, with top speed of 225 km/h (140 mph). Although classified as a motorcycle, the interior can accommodate 2 passengers side-by-side, with adjustable backs, foot-pedal box, and 3-point retractable safety belts. The manual transmission, although controlled by hand, more closely resembles motorcycle transmissions than that of a car.

Built by Campagna Corporation, the T-Rex has been commercially available since the early 1990s. Its unique look and style has made it a collector's item for both car and motorcycle connoisseurs.

==Roadhandling==
Due to the absence of doors or windshield (optional), the vehicle maintains a very low weight. In addition, thanks to its low centre of gravity and 2 front wheels and single 315mm rear wheel, the vehicle can achieve turning G-forces greater than a substantial majority of four-wheeled vehicles.
