Well, the company marketing the Phänomobil was the Phänomenwerke from Zittau. Later, this company would become Robur.

That is the complete answer. My source mentioned it as the Phänomen Motordreirad type C.
It was not named as Phänomobil.

Well done! point is yours!

Because of the umlaut ä in its name, it was marketed as the Fenomobil in some export markets:

In 1911 it featured a proper 4cylinder engine sitting above the front wheel:
