The Messerschmitt KR175 was a microcar built from 1953 to 1955 and was the first vehicle built by Messerschmitt under its 1952 agreement with Fritz Fend, who had earlier made the Fend Flitzer invalid carriage. Kabinenroller means scooter with cabin. Messerschmitt, temporarily not allowed to build aircraft after the Second World War, produced it at its Regensburg factory, though a separate company, Regensburger Stahl- und Metallbau GmbH, was created to make and market it. It had a tubular steel space-frame, tandem seating under a Plexiglas dome and a 173 cc Fichtel and Sachs air-cooled single-cylinder two-stroke engine mounted behind the passenger's seat. About 15,000 were built before the KR200 replaced it in 1955.
