“The Tri-Wheeled Tyrax is a small to medium sized Blacktron Future Generation land vehicle. It has three wheels, with one in front and two on either side of the cockpit.

Lego Maniacs' Guide
“Tri-Wheeled Tyrax is a small three wheeled rover capable of carrying one mini-fig. The three-wheeled concept is just so great that it alone gives the set an additional star for originality, but other stars are cut because of the set's few shortcomings.”
