tiny car

Small wheeled vehicle

A tiny car is a very small automobile, either a compact vehicle designed for urban driving and fuel efficiency, or a novelty car used for entertainment—most iconically by circus clowns who pile impossibly many performers into one: Twelve clowns emerged from the tiny car.

The phrase sometimes describes any car that seems comically undersized for its occupants or purpose.
