It's one of the tricycle taxis used at Expo 58, the World fair held in Brussels that year.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

That's what I was investigating. I've found a photo of the thing but I can't really decipher its name, something like Superia Cariding.

Yes, right place and time. Now we need the company that at least claimed those taxis to be their product.

Locked for nicanary and oko94.

It is easier than you might think.

Superia has already been mentioned, so you're looking for another brand ?

Some Superia motorcycles had Sachs engines, so maybe Sachs ?

Yes, Sachs themselves called it a Sachs-Taxi, although they probably supplied the engine only.

One more point for you.
