How are you delimiting that? Currently in production?
Here's the classic example of the 'fully enclosed' trike. It's even made out of a 4-wheeler. I grabbed these out of a long boring talk by Sir Norman Foster, he's the owner of the 4th Dymaxion.
And here is Bucky's 4th Dymaxion, never built:
The drawing I had seen before was a six wheel trike, with in-hub motors. And a variable wheelbase. This one has 3 radial engines, mounted fairly high up. It reminds me of the Electric Egg which admittedly is not 'fully enclosed'.
